Projects to comprehend the conceptions of subjectivity present either implicitly or explicitly in psychological theories should incorporate scrutiny of the subject status of the observer/analyst. Examination of this `other' subjectivity is challenged by the discipline's longstanding practices of purportedly removing, regulating or even disregarding the observer/analyst's subjectivity. Some promising theory templates for interrogating the observer/analyst have been proposed in recent years; that work indicates intriguing epistemological and practical problems for future theory development.
