Abstract An adduction and elucidation relative to the problem, especially as it is involved in contemporary historical analysis of an interdisciplinary character, of the relationships among the scientist‐observer and the thing‐, or things‐, observed as well as the interactions between the scientist‐observer and that which is observed and made the bases of theory construction, reveals that the classical nontransactional and nonsituational conception of objectivity must be re‐evaluated.
