    Default objective

    Clinical can also refer to an attitude or state of mind that is objective and not affected by emotions.

    What does `objective' mean in this sentence?

    Please explain it.

    Default Re: objective

    subjective = • adjective 1 based on or influenced by your personal feelings, tastes, or opinions

    objective = • adjective 1 not influenced by personal feelings or opinions

    The "state of mind" is unemotional, detached and scientific.
