Objectivity when studying sociology and society in general can have the following drawbacks:

1. Objectivity does not guarantee valid findings- When researching a social phenomenon, if a researcher is objective in his approach, operating on fixed-answer questions and predetermined research questions, he will likely miss out on in-depth and comprehensive answers or explanations to his questions.

2. Objectivity is not possible for all social phenomena since some phenomena or social processes are simply not quantifiable.

<span>Sociology is unique among the many sciences. It truly tries to grasp aspects of human nature and interaction that often go unobserved or untested. However, as far as objectivity goes, some might find this the very reason that sociology cannot be trusted as much as other sciences. The reason many of these things go untested is that they are abstract ideas, this makes it much easier for a scientist testing these ideas to end up including their own opinions in the matter.</span>
