研究过程从来都不缺乏价值判断。然而,研究人员的动机并不一定使工作在科学意义上变得不客观。对科学客观性的威胁包括改变公开表达的观点的困难,特定理论的既得利益,避免争议的愿望,以及对经济利益的渴望。然而,研究人员必须小心,避免将自己的观点等同于“公共利益”,并谴责那些持相反观点的人缺乏科学客观性。
The research process is never devoid of value judgments. Nevertheless, motivation of the researcher does not necessarily render work unobjective in a scientific sense. Threats to scientific objectivity include the difficulty of changing a publicly expressed viewpoint, a vested interest in a particular theory, the desire to avoid controversy, and the desire for financial gain. The researcher must be careful, however, to avoid equating his own views with the "public interest" and condemning those with opposing views as lacking scientific objectivity.
