What characteristic do you associate with an impartial party?

Biased
Neutral
Partisan
Subjective

The correct answer is: Neutral

An impartial party is defined by its neutrality and lack of bias in a situation, particularly when making decisions or evaluations. This characteristic ensures that all individuals and pieces of evidence are treated fairly and without favoritism. Neutrality allows the party to objectively consider all sides of an issue or dispute, making it vital in settings like legal proceedings, mediation, or any scenario where fairness is essential. In contrast, the other options reflect a tendency towards partiality or personal influence. Biased implies a preference or inclination that unfairly affects judgment. Partisan indicates support for one particular side, often leading to a lack of objectivity. Subjective means influenced by personal feelings or opinions rather than external facts, which can compromise impartial decision-making. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for anyone involved in situations requiring fairness and objectivity.
