value judgement

Ethical stance taken

Value judgement is an assessment based on personal standards of right and wrong, good and bad, rather than on objective facts: Whether that's progress depends on your value judgement.

The term often implies subjectivity—what one person calls a value judgement, another might call common sense.

Also spelled value judgment.
