ABSTRACT

This paper examines the impact of expressive arts on mood and anxiety levels among college students. By expressing yourself creatively, you can manage stress and feel more positive. Engaging in creative activities provides a therapeutic outlet for emotional expression, stress relief and promotes the overall well-being of individuals. This study examined the impact of expressive arts on mood and anxiety levels among college students. Data was collected from 102 participants through self-report questionnaires, and analysis revealed that engaging in activities such as reading, writing, and coloring positively influenced mood and reduced anxiety levels. These findings suggest that incorporating expressive arts into college environments could be beneficial for promoting mental well-being among students. Further research is warranted to explore the mechanisms underlying these effects and assess the long-term implications for mental health interventions in educational settings.
