The objective of this study is to explore the mediating effect of satisfaction between job burnout and turnover intention.DesignCross-sectional study.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to make sense of the job burnout, satisfaction and turnover intention among primary healthcare workers in central China. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was performed to study the mediating effect of satisfaction between job burnout and turnover intention with maximum likelihood estimation.
