Two friends attribute their high math scores to their high level of effort and ability in math and their low Spanish scores to their teacher's subjective grading and favoritism.
In this situation, these students are exhibiting:
A) the actor-observer effect
B) the hindsight bias
C) scapegoating
D) equity
E) the self-serving bias
Answer:
E) the self-serving bias
Explanation:
The self-serving bias refers to people's inclination to attribute positive events or positive outcomes to their own character but attribute the negative events to external factors. It's a regular type of cognitive bias that has been broadly studied in social psychology.
For example; a student obtains a good grade on a test or positive exam results and tells himself that he studied hard or is good at that particular subject. He gets a bad grade on another test or gets a negative exam results and says the teacher doesn't like him or the test was unfair.
When Athletes win a game they attribute their win to hard work and practice, while when they lose they attribute the loss to some external factors beyond their control.
_____ are unconscious, taken-for-granted perceptions or ideal prototypes of behavior that are considered the correct way to think and act toward problems and opportunities.
Answer:
Shared assumptions.
Explanation:
As per the question, 'shared assumptions' are demonstrated as the 'unconscious and presupposed perceptions or the prefect prototypes of the behavior that are regarded as the appropriate way to think about a particular problem or opportunity or act in such situations.' These are the basis of any organizational culture as they form the common base of perceptions, behaviors, or beliefs that are shared by almost every member part of the culture. These beliefs or assumptions are so deeply embedded that they have been taken-for-granted and remain unnoticed despite being an inherent part of the culture.
John McCormick describes and analyzes Liberal Democracies. His description includes a comparative analysis of different types of democracies-elite v. group or pluralist. My question is, which of the theories of democracy seems most compelling when applied to the British and American systems: elitism, pluralism, or perhaps a combination of the two?
Answer:
Pluralism with a touch of elitism
Explanation:
Classical pluralism learns us that, although politics are made mostly in the framework of government, non-governmental groups do exercise certain amount of influence in the decision making of a country. So we can say that British and American systems follow pluralistic roads but...
... we cannot deny a certain influence of Elite groups in both countries, probably more present in the U.S. than in England. I personally remember that Hillary Clinton for example was judged too elitarian, in the meaning that she represented (and defended) a elite and very powerful minority.
Final answer:
The theories of democracy most compelling when applied to the British and American systems are a combination of elitism and pluralism. While pluralism underscores interest group competition, elitism reflects concentration of power in a few hands. Both systems display traits indicative of democratic liberalism, balancing individual rights with representation.
Explanation:
When analyzing democratic systems, particularly those in the British and American contexts, elitism and pluralism offer compelling theories of democracy. Pluralism highlights the role of competing interest groups in ensuring representation. However, it overlooks the uneven levels of influence among these groups, with entities like the National Rifle Association and the American Medical Association often wielding disproportionate sway. In contrast, elitism suggests power resides with a few, be they economic, governmental, or military leaders, or even among a select socioeconomic class.
Considering the British parliamentary democracy and the American presidential system, elements of both theories are observable. The US political ideology spectrum, characterized by a range from liberal to conservative views, along with voter apathy, suggests a complex interplay wherein elite interests could dominate despite the pluralist structure.
Within the British context, the presence of the monarchy, albeit ceremonial, and the consolidation of power within a parliamentary elite may also reflect elitist tendencies, alongside a pluralist system where multiple parties compete for influence.
Democratic liberalism has emerged as an ideology that merges capitalism and individual rights with democratic principles, defending minority rights against potential majoritarian aggression. This ideology underpins both the British and American systems, which are essentially representative democracies balancing power across various branches and safeguarding individual liberties.
Damien likes to put all sorts of things, like bugs, dirt, and shoelaces, in his mouth. He also likes playing with his toy train; however, he seems to lose interest in playing with the train whenever his brother hides it. Damien is most likely in the ________ stage of development.
Answer:
Sensorimotor stage of development
Explanation:
Piaget's theory of cognitive development has four stages of development and sensorimotor is the first stage of child development. At sensorimotor stage the child learns by assimilation and accommodation, he/she tries to know the environment by using the senses. This period lasts for the first two years of the child's birth.
Damien puts those things in the mouth just to have a feel of them by sucking them. When he sees the toy train he plays with it but when he did not sense it he loses interest. Damien behaviour illustrates a child in the sensorimotor stage of development.
The FTC controls on product comparisons: a. no longer exist. b. are a high regulatory priority. c. are very stringent. d. have changed dramatically with private enforcement.
Answer: D
Have changed dramatically with private enforcement
Explanation:
The Federal trade commission (FTC) is an independent agency of the United States government. It's principal responsibility is to enforce the provisions of the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits "unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce." FTC permits and even encourages product comparisons, but such comparisons must be accurate so as not to confuse the populace.
Andrea is an infant who lives in a house with parents who fight all the time and are contemplating divorce. She is exposed to frequent displays of anger. What can we predict about Andrea’s emotional regulation?

Steve is unhappy with his job. He takes every possible vacation and sick day and sometimes shows up late for work. He is expressing his dissatisfaction through ________.
Question Options:
a. exit
b. voice
c. loyalty
d. social voice
e. neglect
Answer: The NEGLECT response.
Explanation: The neglect response is a type of conflict response that occurs when an individual by any means possible avoids an issue because they believe that things might get worse with their response. This is a model studied in organizational behaviour and comparative politics. The neglect response in an organisation's setting involves reducing work efforts, paying less attention to quality, and increasing absenteeism and lateness.
The correct answer is neglect
Neglect expresses carelessness, inattention or laziness. Negligence means carelessness, carelessness, lack of zeal, lack of application when performing a certain task, it is acting with irresponsibility when making a commitment. Neglect means inattention, contempt, disdain.
Negligence is also the demonstration of laziness, indolence and inertia, it is the lack of initiative.
Negligence is not synonymous with recklessness or malpractice. While negligence is the act of omitting, of acting in a sloppy, inattentive way, recklessness is the act of acting in a hasty way, of not being restrained or being moderate.
You put a lot of effort into an assignment and get a C while your roommate, who put in less effort, gets a B+. According to the ______________________ theory of motivation, your feeling that you have been treated unfairly relative to your roommate makes sense.
Answer:
Equity theory of motivation
Explanation:
Equity theory is based in the idea that individuals are motivated by fairness, and if they identify inequities in the input or output ratios of themselves and their referent group, they will seek to adjust their input to reach their perceived equity. So the feelings makes sense according to the Equity theory of motivation.
Consider again the election in question HW3, under the Borda Count method.a. Is there a Condorcet candidate in this election, and how can you tell?b.Does the result of this election under the Borda Countmethod violate the Condorcet Criterion? Explain briefly why or whynot.
Answer:
a)Not enough information
b)A Borda count election will likely violate the Condorcet Criterion. There usually is a Condorcet winner in a borda count election, however, this candidate will not be declared winner due to the point tally at the end of a borda count election.
Explanation:
The question fails to provide details of the election referenced in "question HW3". Notwithstanding, an attempt has been made to answer said question based on general principles
Borda count is a voting system in which voters rank the candidates in an order of preference. Points are given for the position of a candidate in a voter's rank order. The candidate with the most points wins.
The Borda count does not comply with the Condorcet criterion in the following case. Consider an election consisting of five voters and three alternatives, in which three voters prefer A to B and B to C, while two of the voters prefer B to C and C to A. The fact that A is preferred by three of the five voters to all other alternatives makes it a Condorcet Winner. However the Borda count awards 2 points for 1st choice, 1 point for second and 0 points for third. Thus, from three voters who prefer A, A receives 6 points (3 x 2), and 0 points from the other two voters, for a total of 6 points. B receives 3 points (3 x 1) from the three voters who prefer A to B to C, and 4 points (2 x 2) from the other two voters who prefer B to C to A. With 7 points, B is the Borda winner.
Answer:
a. yes there is a condorcet candidate in the election and is Ann. She defeated every other candidates in head to head competition.
b. The result does not violate the condorcet criterion.
Explanation:
based on the result of the election, Ann defeated every other candidates in the election head to head.
Ann vs. Bob:
11 + 6 = 17 voters rank Ann higher than Bob, while 7 + 8 + 1 = 16 voters rank Bob higher than Ann. Therefore Ann defeats Bob head to head, i.e. a majority of voters prefer Ann over Bob.
Ann vs. Claire:
11 + 6 = 17 voters rank Ann higher than Claire, while 7 + 8 + 1 = 16 voters rank Claire higher than Ann. Therefore Ann again defeats Claire head to head, i.e. a majority of voters prefer Ann over Claire. Claire is now out of the running to be a Condorcet candidate.
Ann vs. Dave:
7 + 8 + 6 = 21 voters rank Ann higher than Dave, while 11 + 1 = 12 voters rank Dave higher than Ann. Thus Ann defeats Dave head to head, i.e. a majority of voters prefer Ann over Dave. Behold!
Ann defeats all opponents in head to head competition, and is therefore a Condorcet candidate. According to the Condorcet criterion, Ann should win. [In general, in order to find out if a Condorcet candidate exists, we consider head to head competitions between candidates until a Condorcet candidate appears (because one candidate defeats all others head to head), or we find that there is none (because every candidate loses at least one head to head matchup). So Ann should win.
Choose the best description of the barrier listed.
Psychological barriers
(a) We "tune out" others’ ideas that run counter to our own preconceived thoughts.
(b) We become bored because we can process thoughts three times faster than speakers can present them.
(c) We fail to listen because we are just waiting for the next pause when we get to speak.
The correct answer is (A) We "tune out" others’ ideas that run counter to our own preconceived thoughts.
Explanation:
In listening and understanding, a psychological barrier occurs as our beliefs, opinions, ideas, feelings, preconceptions and inner thoughts interrupt the process of listening, and therefore disrupt understanding. These barriers are unique in each person and due to this, these are one of the most difficult barriers to overcome as individuals need to be aware of their feelings, beliefs, etc. that prevent them from listening effectively and understanding.
According to this ideas, the statement that describes psychological barriers is "We "tune out" others’ ideas that run counter to our own preconceived thoughts" because psychological barriers include ideas or preconceived thoughts that stop us from listening effectively; and in this context, it is common we do not listen to speakers that show ideas or beliefs that are opposite from ours.
Elvira is an economic adviser who supports cultural policies that attempt to change people’s behavior to encourage development. She would most likely agree with which theory of global inequality?
Answer: dependency theory
Explanation:
dependency theory is based on a Marxist view of the world, which sees globalisation in terms of the spread of market capitalism, and the exploitation of cheap labour and resources in return for the obsolete technologies of the developed world. The dominant view of dependency theorists is that there is a dominant world capitalist system that relies on a division of labour between the rich ‘core’ countries and poor ‘peripheral’ countries. Over time, the core countries will exploit their dominance over an increasingly marginalised periphery.
The legislators of New State institute a law that mothers of children in elementary school, but not fathers, are entitled to seven days off each year in order to attend school events. Several fathers bring a lawsuit challenging the law on equal protection grounds. Which level of scrutiny will the court apply to the law?
Answer: Intermediate Scrutiny
Explanation:
According to Constitutional law, INTERMEDIATE SCRUTINY refers to a test used to determine the constitutionality of a law in some specific contexts. It stands as the second level of deciding issues using judicial review.
Intermediate scrutiny is used in equal protection challenges to gender classifications and cases involving government interference on right to freedom of religion and freedom of expression.
Therefore, intermediate scrutiny will be applied by the court to the fathers lawsuit, because the law's classification scheme is based on equal protection challenges to gender classifications.

Reciprocal altruism is likely to flourish in situations a. where the individual being helped is likely to return the favor in the future. b. of extreme stress. c. where the reward is more emotional than physical. d. that have a high cost-benefit ratio.
Final answer:
Reciprocal altruism thrives when individuals assist others with the expectation of future reciprocation, enhancing survival and the probability of receiving aid in return.
Explanation:
Reciprocal altruism is a social behavior where individuals help each other with the expectation that those being helped will eventually reciprocate. This concept is especially likely to flourish in situations a. where the individual being helped is likely to return the favor in the future. The success of reciprocal altruism is based on the premise that by assisting others, the likelihood of receiving aid in return increases, thereby enhancing survival and reproductive success over time. Those who fail to reciprocate may face social repercussions, like exclusion, which may dissuade cheaters and reinforce the cycle of altruism within the community.
what does Malcolm X mean by the philosophy of “Black Nationalis
Answer:
Malcolm X declared that nonviolence was the "philosophy of the fool," and that to achieve anything, African Americans would have to reclaim their national identity, embrace the rights covered by the Second Amendment, and defend themselves from white hegemony and extrajudicial violence.
Explanation:
Black Nationalism is a political, social-economic philosophy that emerged in the early 19th century among black leaders who understood the need for Africans in America to develop a national entity and unity as the only solution for blacks in the African Diaspora, understood as North America, Latin America, the Caribbean and elsewhere with black people outside Africa, and thereby independently achieve social equality, economic development and policy governance within their own communities. Among the nationalists, there were those who believed in total separation and creation of an autonomous black nation or a return to Africa, as well as nationalists who believed that the black people were already a nation within another nation. Malcolm X represents very well the junction and unity of the different thoughts and paths of black nationalism, which he developed during his years of struggle, and summed up as follows.

It has been determined that John receives social reinforcers each time he shouts in class. The teacher wants to use a DRA procedure.
What would be an appropriate alternative behavior?
Answer:
The appropriate alternative behavior would be for John to be silent in the classroom.
Explanation:
DRA procedure is a term used to describe the set of techniques that seek to reduce undesirable behavior that happens frequently in a given individual, by exchanging undesirable behavior for an alternative and desirable behavior. The main objective, in this case, is to end or reduce the incidence of problematic, irritating behaviors that have bad results.
In the case shown in the question above, the DRA procedure can be used to make John quiet in the classroom, instead of shouting.
Answer: The appropriate alternative behavior, will be the use of "SOCIAL REINFORCEMENT WHENEVER HE IS TALKING QUIETLY".
Explanation: DRA means Differential Reinforcement of Alternative behavior. It is the process of reducing a behavior by reinforcing an alternative behavior.
Because John receives social reinforcement whenever he shouts, the alternative behavior to John's shouting is talking quietly. Therefore if DRA is to be used on John, the appropriate way is to reinforce his alternative behavior.
Social reinforcement is the use of incentives or praises to increase the occurrence of a behavior in an individual.
c. Choose two countries that appear to be culturally diverse to you. Compare the cultures of those countries, and then indicate how cultural differences influence • the costs of doing business in each country • the likely future economic development of that country • business practices
Explanation:
The response depends on the students who chose the country. It depends on the knowledge of student's knowledge about the country. There are different dimensions on the bases a student can get some information about the country such as ethics, norms, culture, religion, language, and education in the country. The students can describe the similarities and differences of the country based on social norms, language, religion, etc. These differences help students to understand the dimension of the business and the potential of economic development.
Thus in the above statement, different dimensions can describe the culture, religion of a country. Students can understand the culture of a different country.
Final answer:
The United States and India offer examples of culturally diverse countries affecting the costs of doing business, future economic development, and business practices. American culture values individualism, efficiency, and directness, impacting operational costs and business approaches. Indian culture emphasizes collectivism, relationships, and flexibility, influencing negotiation processes and partnership dynamics.
Explanation:
To compare two culturally diverse countries, let's take the United States and India as examples. American culture highly values individualism and has a more linear approach to business, focusing on punctuality, privacy, and directness in communication. In contrast, Indian culture places a higher emphasis on collectivism and relationship-building, with a more flexible approach to time and a communication style that often seeks to maintain harmony.
The cost of doing business in each country is influenced by these cultural differences. In the United States, punctuality and efficiency are key, potentially leading to higher costs due to the need for prompt delivery and quick turnarounds. Regulations and legal structures also tend to be strict, affecting operational costs. In India, establishing trust and rapport can be crucial before entering into negotiations or partnerships, which may lengthen the time to close deals but can also lead to more reliable partnerships and potentially lower transaction costs in the long-term.
Looking at future economic development, the United States is continuing to advance in technology and services, maintaining its position as a postindustrial economy. India, with its booming tech industry and large skilled workforce, is also progressing rapidly, though it still contends with large income disparities and infrastructure challenges.
When it comes to business practices, American companies often emphasize results and achievements in their leadership styles and reward systems, while Indian companies may place more value on team dynamics and group success. Leaders in India might be expected to be more paternalistic and status-conscious than their American counterparts.
While working on a puzzle with his 3-year-old daughter, Jon demonstrates how to put the outside pieces of the puzzle together first, followed by matching up the puzzle shapes and colors. After his daughter observes for a bit, she begins to pick up pieces and tries to match them together. When she appears confused or looks to her father, Jon points to where the piece should go. Jon’s modeling and support illustrate Vygotsky’s concept of __
Answer:
Scaffolding
Explanation:
According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
guided imagerymetacognitionscaffoldingcultural transmissionThis illustrates the concept of scaffolding. Scaffolding is a learning method in which learners learn by collaborating with others in a particular activity. The instructor, parent or peer who works with the learner functions as a "scaffolding," as he allows the learner to expand his or her knowledge beyond what he or she would have normally known. It allows the person to develop his zone of proximal development. This is the knowledge that a person might not have on his own, but that can be developed with help and guidance.
Answer:
Scaffolding
Explanation:
Lev Vygotsky was a psychologist who developed a theory on cognitive development on children based on learning that was made through observation, practice and help of models.
The term Scaffolding refers to the process by which kids learn by being helped by more advanced peers or adults. These people help the kid by giving them guidance when they are working on a task and by showing them how it's done, then, by observation, the children learn faster and also, they receive help when they get stuck, using this method, kids learn abilities faster than those who don't receive any help and learn totally by themselves.
In this example, Jon is working with his 3-year-old daughter and he demonstrates how to put the outside pieces of the puzzled together first, first, she observes and then she starts to do the same thing his father is doing, when she gets stuck, her father is there to help her and point to where the piece should go. We can see that Jon's daughter is learning how to solve a puzzle by receiving help and guidance from him and also getting help when she is stuck. Therefore, this would illustrate Vygotsky's concept of scaffolding.

Answer: An evoked set
Explanation: An evoked set is defined as alternatives that a consumer considers before making a decision concerning purchase. They are a set of brands that comes to a consumer's mind when s/he thinks of purchasing a product. They are the group of brands most likely to be purchased by consumers. In order to judge the features and benefits of her evoked set, Morgan uses "inexpensive and taste" as standards.
The goal of all marketers is for their brand to be part of an evoked set which has been narrowed down from a total and awareness set.
Answer:
An evoked set
Explanation:
Evoked set is a set of brands that comes to a consumer’s mind when he thinks of purchasing a product. Morgan only thinks or considers only these options of three brands when she buys a case of wine, which is Charles Shaw, Livingston or the Sutter. It really doesnt matter if these brands are inexpensive or expensive or tasty or not tasty. As far as Morgan selects these set. These set of brands is known as an evoked set

Hello. You forgot to add the required table for this question to be answered. The table is attached below:
Answer:
As you can see from the table below, the arguments and beliefs between federalists and republicans are very different and are present in the most varied points of society.
In the question above, it is requested that the most convincing side be chosen, however, it is impossible to generalize these two aspects and choose only one of them as the one that must be defended and followed. Both sides have convincing opinions, it is up to each individual to interpret which opinions fit with what each individual finds correct and fair for society.
However, it is important to point out that it is incorrect to be extremist and to adopt a side as the supreme owner of the truth. This is because both federalists and republicans have very serious flaws, as well as convincing opinions.
Forecasting models can be divided into three groups. They are: a. time series, optimization, and simulation methods b. judgmental, random, and linear methods c. linear, non-linear, and extrapolation methods d. judgmental, extrapolation, and econometric methods
Answer:
d. judgmental, extrapolation, and econometric methods
Explanation:
Forecasting models are tested frameworks or mathematical models that are used in predicting future outcomes and they are divided into three major groups; judgmental, extrapolation, and econometric methods.
Judgmental forecasting is employed when there is a lack of historical data, it incorporates intuitive judgement, opinions and subjective probability estimates. Extrapolation forecasting on the other hand is based on previously existing data, this type of forecasting asserts that previous trends from data will be replicated in the future.
The correct answer is letter D
As a demand request for auxiliary products and services as decision making, providing basic information for planning and controlling areas of an organization, such as, for example, finance and accounting, engineering and research, production, distribution and logistics, human resources, marketing.
If the forecast method is Calculation from the previous year, the demand forecast is identical to the Moving Average, except that the number of periods to be taken into account is different. Where: Average demand is calculated as: write-off of the actual item (previous period) / seasonal factor (previous period)
Find a practice partner who is an office worker or someone in your business, educational network, family or friend (indicate who it is in your paper). Take turns telling events from your lives. As you listen to your practice partner, sum up your practice partner’s overall experience (explain the background to the dialogue and their experience and feelings conveyed) in a 100-150-word writing. At the end of your writing, indicate why you believe your interpretation of their message required and utilized good listening skills. Support your answer from the text and peer reviewed sources.
Answer:
The chosen partner was a childhood friend.
Explanation:
My friend and I talked about the time when we were at a school extremely far from our home and we had to take several buses to get to school. Both he and I missed the bus schedule that took us back home constantly, which resulted in several adventures where both he and I spent the night wandering around until we found a way to get home or find shelter to spend in the evening.
The conversation was very nostalgic and gave me a feeling of accomplishment. It also gave me a sense of how fast time passes and that very conflicting situations from the past, turn into funny and fun memories today. I believe my friend felt the same things.
I believe that we passed on to each other a message of overcoming. That's because when I heard my friend's reports, I didn't feel that he was sad or embarrassed by these past issues, but that he was proud of how these things built the person he is today. I wouldn’t realize it if I weren’t a good listener.
What makes us help other people? Are the variables that make us more likely to help others genetic or environmental? Using research from the Shapiro Library, explain which factor—genetics or the environment—is more powerful in regards to helping behavior. Support your perspective using research and examples. Also, consider the strongest or most valid points that may be raised against your argument and counter them.
Explanation:
There are many reasons why people help each other. In some cases this is due to the fact that human beings have a feeling of empathy, which corresponds to putting themselves in the other person's shoes and therefore being motivated to help them when necessary. There are also ethical values that are shared by society, that we must act with solidarity and help those in need.
It is correct to say that genetic and environmental variables increase the likelihood that one person will help another, but the environmental factor may be stronger in the case of unexpected events, such as an environmental and social tragedy, conflicts, etc.
It is important to establish a sense of empathy in society, it is through it that relationships happen in a better way and people can live better and be happier.
Helping behavior is shaped by both genetics and the environment. A genetic inclination towards altruism can be influenced by the environment one is raised in and currently lives in.
The propensity to help others is influenced by a combination of genetic predispositions and environmental factors. Research in behavioral genetics has shown that certain personality traits, such as empathy and agreeableness, which are associated with prosocial behavior, have a heritable component.
One of the key pieces of research supporting the role of genetics is the finding that heritability accounts for about 50% of the variance in prosocial behavior. This indicates that genetic factors contribute substantially to individual differences in helping behavior.
On the other hand, the other 50% of the variance is attributed to non-shared environmental factors, which include all environmental influences that are not shared by siblings in the same family, such as unique experiences, friendships, and personal life events.
A strong point that might be raised against the argument that genetics play a significant role is the phenomenon of situational influence. The presence of bystanders, the perceived cost of helping, and the degree of distress of the person in need can all dramatically affect whether an individual chooses to help.
To counter this argument, it is important to recognize that while situational factors can have a strong influence, they interact with an individual's genetic makeup. For instance, someone genetically predisposed to high empathy might be more sensitive to cues of distress and therefore more likely to help regardless of situational factors.
Western culture in the period 1300–1550 more: the Black Death’s emphasis on the afterlife (the hereafter) or the Renaissance’s emphasis on human achievement (the here and now)? Choose one of these and explain your perspective. Start with a statement identifying your choice; this is your thesis. Then, support your choice with specific examples from at least three of the following categories: significant individuals (e.g., political or religious leaders, innovators, explorers); characteristics of worldview (e.g., philosophy, religion); social institutions (e.g., social mores, practices, hierarchies); patronage (discuss the patrons, their motives, influence, and resulting products or artifacts); the economies (e.g., changes, different economic systems, impact); and politics (e.g., forms of governance, power distributions, contests).
One of the most significant contributions of Western culture to the world during these years is that of the Renaissance. The Renaissance was a new artistic, philosophical, and political movement that changed the way in which Europe thought about itself and the world. The Renaissance emphasized the importance of the individual, and that of human experience, as opposed to the afterlife. This led to the study of humanity and human experience. An example of a Renaissance thinker is Leonardo da Vinci. Da Vinci studied humanity with an anatomical and physiological approach. However, he also looked at humanity from an artistic and emotional perspective. Many artists and thinkers such as Da Vinci were only able to complete their work due to the support of patrons. Patrons were wealthy people who invested their money in financing the works of artists, thinkers and other people of talent.
