The article intends to study the concept of moral stress in a university context and aims to
identify and characterize potential situations of moral stress in this area, by analysing three
dimensions of the situations that can lead to moral stress as have been informed through an
open questionnaire administered to 169 psychology students at the University of Girona. Data
show that up to 82 students have experienced situations which could lead to moral stress. The
stress-producing situations seem to be mainly related to the relationships among students themselves, although other aspects related to their training and the possibility to express their
opinions are also involved. The research shows that moral stress is present in college life and is
an open field for future research
