- subjective: if there is a jury somewhere, i.e. a group of people which has to decide if s.th. is good or bad. The common unit to measure subjective things are points or votes.
- objective: if it can be measure by a measure or unit. Things are measure in this unit.
The dimension
- subjective: internal pleasure/displeasure dimension which spans and colors all subjective feelings
- objective: external spatial or physical dimension which can be measured in a certain physical unit
