Morphology

nonobjectivity = nonobjective (transparent) = non + object + ive + ity

The noun is clearly formed by adding '-ity' to the adjective 'nonobjective' (non- + objective), producing the meaning 'the state of not being objective/impartial'.

Etymology

The word nonobjectivity comes from non- meaning 'not' and objective meaning 'fair' or 'not personal'. So it means being 'not objective', showing a personal side or bias instead of a fair view.
