Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI): COVID-19 Vaccine Dose and Characteristics in Central Java, Indonesia
Introduction: Vaccination is an effort to control the COVID-19 pandemic. Although vaccines can be effective prevention, they can have potential side effects, or adverse events following immunization (AEFI). CoronaVac, BBIBP-CorV, BNTb262-BioNTech, mRNA-1273, and ChAdOx1NCoV-19 were vaccines used in Indonesia when this study was conducted. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with AEFI for the COVID-19 vaccines for each dose in the community. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. The study was conducted in Central Java Province, Indonesia from August to October 2021. The variables included respondent characteristics, COVID-19 infection history, COVID-19 vaccine AEFI, dose, and type. Data collection was performed through questionnaires and data was analyzed by a logistic regression test. Results: The percentage of AEFI was 21.1% after the first dose, 14.1% after the second dose, and 83.9% after the third dose of the vaccine. The factors associated with higher odds of COVID-19 vaccine AEFI were different for each dose, as follows: for the first dose: age group >45 years (p = 0.009; OR = 2.837; 95%CI: 1.301-6.187) and overweight (p = 0.007; OR = 3.323; 95%CI: 1.242-8.689); for the second dose: overweight (p = 0.007; OR=9.118; 95%CI: 1.827-45.5), female sex (p=0.011; OR=2.885; 95%CI: 1.274-6.531), age group >45 years (p=0.017; OR=3.257; 95%CI: 1.24-8.555) and prior episode of COVID-19 (p = 0.044; OR = 2.459; 95%CI: 1.026-5.893); and for the third dose: female sex (p = 0.040; OR = 3.650; 95%CI: 1.062-12.550). Conclusions: The factors that were associated with AEFI of COVID-19 vaccine were sex, age, nutritional status and prior history of COVID-19
