Purpose This paper aims to explore the gradual commercialisation of second homes in non-urban locations and identifie a spectrum that ranges from lending to rentals to home exchange. Design/methodology/approach This paper is a conceptual one based on a review of literature relating to the acquisiting and use of secondary residences or “second homes”. Findings This paper observes that the secondary residence is often the object of a material over-investment that is symbolic and mental. The owners never quite leave their main place of residence when in the secondary one. The result is not two complementary spaces, but a hybrid space made up of the interlocking of the two. This paper also concludes that digitalization has made it easier to rent a secondary residence for a short period of time, using for instance the Airbnb platform, thus making it more an object of trade than a second home. From a sustainability perspective, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to bring to the relatively rapid growth of short-term renting a halt. Further, it may encourage owners to be more psychologically and physically invested in their secondary residence, thereby contributing more to the local economy. Originality/value Few authors have considered the way digital tools can alter the relation with the secondary place of residence.

We express our unease with one-sided invitations into the Northern mainstream, as well as with Southern critics’ retreat into indigenous enclaves of organizational scholarship. We use this dichotomy to theorize the role of context in organizational theorizing by linking scholarly conversations on context, analogical reasoning, and problematizing assumptions. This creates the opportunity to more carefully consider how not just our theoretical backgrounds but also our contextual life-worlds provide the assumptions and analogies we bring into our theorizing. We use this platform to consider in more detail systematic biases in both the Northern mainstream (erasing and imposing biases) and the Southern critique (scapegoating and valorizing biases). These biases have in common that they essentialize context. To address this risk and to facilitate contextual reflexivity, we propose a form of dialogical scholarly engagement to generate complementary spaces to fruitfully question our contextually embedded assumptions.

Abstract Objective: To know the positions and practices adopted by nursing students in scientific initiation programs about the principles of scientific integrity in the different stages of the process of doing science. Method: An exploratory study of a quantitative nature, in which nursing student participants of the Scientific Initiation Program from the Federal District were interviewed. Results: Fifty (50) nursing students participated in the study. Most of the interviewed participants presented good notions about the process of conducting research in its different stages. Nevertheless, it was found that even though they were familiar with good scientific practices, students did not always behave in the most responsible manner. It was observed that the knowledge on topics related to the ethics of the scientific process was predominantly obtained through formal education, consisting of classes and courses. Nonetheless, the importance of complementary spaces such as research and research groups is recognized. Conclusion: Research experiences are important educational and vocational training spaces for students. Therefore, good research practices need to be included early in the academic curriculum.

The spreading of the position and momentum probability distributions for the stable free oscillations of a circular membrane of radius l is analyzed by means of the associated Boltzmann–Shannon information entropies in the correspondence principle limit (n → ∞, m fixed), where the numbers (n, m), n ∈ ℕ and m ∈ ℤ, uniquely characterize an oscillation of this two-dimensional system. This is done by solving the short-wave asymptotics of the physical entropies in the two complementary spaces, which boils down to the calculation of the asymptotic behavior of certain entropic integrals of Bessel functions. It is rigorously shown that the position and momentum entropies behave as 2 ln (l) + ln (4π) - 2 and ln (n) - 2 ln (l) + ln (2π3) when n → ∞, respectively. So the total entropy sum has a logarithmic dependence on n and it does not depend on the membrane radius. The former indicates that the ordering of short-wavelength oscillations is exactly identical for the entropic sum and the single-particle energy. The latter holds for all oscillations of the membrane because of the uniform scaling invariance of the entropy sum.
