Morphology

unbiassed = biased (transparent) = un + bias + ed

Formed by adding the negative prefix 'un-' to the adjective 'biased'; meaning 'not biased' follows regular, predictable English morphology.

Etymology

Unbiassed starts with un- meaning 'not' and the root bias means 'a lean' or 'tilt', like when something leans to one side. So, to be unbiassed is not leaning to one side and means being fair and not influenced by personal feelings.
