mistake in referencing reference #5

"Although the labeling of expressions currently requires trained experts, researchers have had some success in using computers to automatically identify FACS codes, and thus quickly identify emotions. [5]"

Looking at [5], it does not relate to computers at all.

pars orbitalis is not a muscle.

Pars orbitalis is a bone; presumably there is some other muscle that is associated with a genuine smile? Vectro 21:24, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The muscle associated with the Duchenne Smile is the orbitis oculi, pars lateralis

Is this a commercial?

  1. Blink (book). Current bestseller has a section on FACS.

It links to a wikipedia article about the book, but its still a commercial product. Should that be allowed? Dream Focus (talk) 18:46, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not, though I suspect it should be elaborated. Gladwell uses FACS, and also has a personal interview with the scientists behind it in the book, to create an argument for how facial expression and intuition about other people's intentions are linked.
