Failure to thrive can be categorized as either?

  1. Organic vs Nonorganic

  2. Intentional vs Unintentional

  3. Physical vs Psychological

  4. Visible vs Invisible

The correct answer is: Organic vs Nonorganic

A failure to thrive diagnosis can be categorized as either organic or nonorganic. Organic failure to thrive is caused by underlying medical conditions, such as congenital heart defects or gastrointestinal disorders. Nonorganic, also referred to as "psychosocial" failure to thrive, is often a result of inadequate care or neglect from caregivers and can occur even when a child has no underlying medical conditions. Intentional vs unintentional or visible vs invisible do not accurately describe the two categories of failure to thrive and should not be chosen as the correct answer.
