This research investigates the learning styles and study condition of Psychology students.  The sample is composed by 192 students from two universities (public and private) from Parana state. It was applied a questionnaire focusing the student’s learning style and the study conditions. The results have showed that students sleep late and in the classroom feel tired and sleepy. It also became evident that the group activity is the choice among students, especially when it is configured as assessing learning. Outside the university environment the study is simultaneously with other activities such as watching television, get on social networks, among others. Another fact is that the learning environment is not quiet, because it seems they do not have a place/space dedicated to the study. Pedagogical and psycho-educational implications are discussed.

Keywords : learning; study; university.
