Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to use a number of sociological perspectives and theories in order to examine how they can be interpreted in the context of childhood/preadolescence and adolescence. Given that sociology is the science that studies society as a whole but also in its components, the chosen sociological theories can be interpreted and adapted to the age segment we are concerned with, namely children/preadolescents and adolescents. Thus, the flexibility of sociological perspectives and theories is observed in terms of the fact that they can be used as a theoretical framework to guide the researcher in the undertaken approach.
