%X Objective: The study investigated the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress in trainee teachers at the University of Brunei Darussalam. Methods: A survey was used with 119 preservice students of both genders who were on the undergraduate (BEd) and graduate (PGCE) programmes. Data were measured by the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS). Results: Categories indicative of concerns with depression, anxiety, and stress were more prevalent in females than males. In addition, BEd students were more depressed than their PGCE counterparts. Gender and the programme of study were not correlated with depression, anxiety and stress. Depression, anxiety, and stress were highly correlated. Conclusions: Depression, anxiety and stress are some of the problems that can occur among Brunei trainee teachers.
