%X This study conducted a questionnaire survey to collect 202 college students¡¯ perspectives on the washback effect of the listening test of College English Test Band 4 (CET4) on students¡¯ self-regulated learning (SRL) and used SPSS 25.0 for data analysis. The findings indicate that a majority of the participants agree that the CET 4 listening test has a positive washback effect on their SRL attitudes, learning approaches, and learning habits. Additionally, some participants believed that the difficulty of the CET 4 listening test exceeded their expectations, resulting in a negative washback effect on their English learning. The findings of this study propose relevant implications to enhance the positive washback effect of CET 4 exams on students as well as offer corresponding suggestions for CET 4 teaching and learning in higher education.
