Overview

Objectives The American ear will find the British accent more appealing because of the amount of representation it has in American media. The French accent will be the least liked accent because of the negative views that Americans have on the French. The second appealing accent was the Scottish accents because not many people hear Scottish accents or do not recognize the accent. The third appealing accent is the American accent because we are familiar with the American accent and use it every day. Methods 4 videos, 1 script, 1 survey. Results Our results were that the british was more appealing then scottish then the american then the scottish accent. Conclusions Most of the participants believed that the British accent was the most appealing to them with over half answering it as the most appealing.
