PURPOSE: This study was conducted to investigate medical residents' job satisfaction and their related factors to improve the quality of residency program. METHODS: The study subjects were 159 medical residents being trained at Chonnam National University Hospital, South Korea, in 2011. The participants were asked to complete a short form Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire (MSQ). RESULTS: The mean score for 20 items on the short form MSQ varied between 2.91 and 3.64 on a 5-point Likert scale. The assessment of related factors with job satisfaction revealed that medical residents had higher levels for job satisfaction, particularly those who were women (β=0.200, p=0.022), and those who had mentorship experience (β=0.219, p=0.008). CONCLUSION: This study results indicate that we should expand and support the mentorship program during medical residency to promote job satisfaction
