What is an objective evaluation and what is a subjective evaluation?
An objective evaluation is a measurement or assessment that is based on observable, measurable, and verifiable evidence. It is not influenced by personal feelings, interpretations, or biases. A subjective evaluation, on the other hand, is based on personal opinions, interpretations, and feelings. It is influenced by individual perspectives and can vary from person to person. Objective evaluations are often used in scientific research, performance appraisals, and standardized testing, while subjective evaluations are common in art, literature, and personal experiences.
