%X Objective: The aim of this research is to examine the effect of inter-model expressive group art therapy on the final year nursing students¡¯ level of overcoming stress. Method: This study was designed as an experiential research with randomization technique in the type of pre-test and final test. It was carried out with sixteen participants (eight participants, eight control group members) who were last grade nursery students in a foundation university¡¯s faculty of health sciences in 2015-2016 academic year. The researcher collected the data using a Personal Information Form, Perceived Stress Scale in Nursery Students (PSSNS), Ways of Coping Inventory (WCI), The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI 1-2) and art pieces produced in sessions, oral expressions of participants, observations of the workshop leader and supervision reports. These scales were analyzed with ¡°Shapiro Wilks test¡±, ¡°Mann Whitney U test¡±, ¡°Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test¡±, ¡°Spearman Rho Correlation Analysis¡±, ¡°Chi Square Test¡±, ¡°Fisher¡¯s Exact Chi-Square Test¡±. Results: When the point averages taken by participants from scales were examined, a statistically significant positive relation (on the level of 72,4%) was found between beginning stress sub-dimension points caused by instructors and nurses with social support application sub-dimension points in the experimental group according to the beginning evaluation of correlation between sub-dimension points of PSSNS and those of WCI (r: 0.724; p<0.05). When correlation between WCI sub-dimension points and STAI 1-2 sub-dimension points was evaluated, a statistically significant and positive relation on a level of 71,2% between social support application beginning sub-dimension points and trait anxiety sub-dimension points (r:0.712; p<0.05); and another statistically significant and positive relation on a level of 70.4% between optimistic approach beginning sub-dimension points and state anxiety sub-dimension points were found in the experimental group (r:0.704; p<0.05). Conclusion: This study is thought to have helped participants about defining their stressors, realizing, expressing and explaining their own feelings; empowered in-group communication; and supported creative and critical thinking giving a new perspective to participants. On the basis of this result, forming large sample groups and long-term studies must be supported
