=== Baby FACS === Baby FACS (Facial Action Coding System for Infants and Young Children)<ref>{{cite book |last1=Oster |first1=Harriet |title=Baby FACS: Facial Action Coding System for Infants and Young Children |date=2006 |publisher=Unpublished monograph and coding manual. New York University. |location=New York}}</ref> is a behavioral coding system that adapts the adult FACS to code facial expressions in infants aged 0β2 years. It corresponds to specific underlying facial muscles, tailored to infant facial anatomy and expression patterns. It was created by Dr. Harriet Oster and colleagues to address the limitations of applying adult FACS directly to infants, whose facial musculature, proportions, and developmental capabilities differ significantly.
