Neither the king nor the woman are wrong! Their perspectives of the kingdom stem from different subjectivities.
Everything is fine; trade is booming!
The kingdom is in trouble; our taxes are too high!
Subjectivity is the concept in qualitative research that everyone has an unavoidable personal perspective that necessarily affects how you conduct research, interpret data, and construct meaning.

I disclose my subjectivities to you: I am a wealthy king. I've enjoyed a life of privilege. But I love this kingdom and care about making it better for the people who live here.
Subjectivity Statements
Subjectivity statements are provided as part of qualitative research in order to acknowledge who researchers are in relation to who or what they are studying and how their positionalities may affect their research. Subjectivity statements remove the illusion of objectivity and allow other scholars to consider the study's credibility and authenticity.

Subjectivity's Effect
Tell me about your experiences.
Even though we are different, I hope you will listen.
When we effectively identify and disclose our subjectivities we make visible our positionalities, allowing others to better understand how those positionalities may have affected question production, data interpretation, and meaning construction.
