The study was held with 36 students (30%) from the total population of 120 students of the ELE program cohort 2018 in Universitas Negeri Malang. This study s data collection consisted of the results of three listening comprehension tests and a survey questionnaire. The results showed that the audio rsquo s various English accents affected the participants rsquo listening comprehension. The participants scored the highest in the American-accented which has a mean value of 4.28 followed by British-accented English with 4.19 and the Australia-accented English scored the lowest far behind the other two with a mean value of 2.92. In addition the results indicate that the participants showed a more positive attitude toward American and British-accented English. The majority of the participants (27 students) claimed that they want to obtain American-accented English even though they regard English belongs to British. The results of the research indicated that while the students have a mixed view of accents and use various accents themselves having a familiar accent has helped them understand the language better.
