How do sociologists try to deal with these difficulties and strive for objectivity?


The sociologists rigorously and continuously examine their own ideas and feelings about the subject matter of research and try to ignore their own feelings and attitude and try to look at the subject matter of research through the eyes of others. This technique is called self reflexivity or reflexivity.
