‘Objective finding’ is the traditional medical criterion for objectivity. In many cases in social insurance medicine, however, no objective findings are present. An issue, therefore, arises about additional criteria of objectivity that also could supplement objective findings regarding embodied subjects. We reviewed concepts of objectivity and subjectivity from a philosophical perspective to clear the ground for a conception of the embodied human being and a comprehensive cognitive concept of objectivity (CCCO).
