Background: National data on the satisfaction of radiology residents enrolled in standardized residency training (SRT) are rather scarce in China. This study identified a set of potential factors concerning SRT satisfaction among radiology residents as well as the association between SRT satisfaction and post-competency and well-being. Methods: A total of 3666 radiology residents who were receiving SRT during 2020 in China were recruited across all 31 provinces. The cumulative odds logistic regression was used to examine the potential factors associated with SRT satisfaction as well as associations between satisfaction and well-being, burnout, professional identity and competency. Results: The prevalence of satisfaction with SRT was 68.6%. Participants who were male, worked in central China, aged more than 28 years old, had long working hours and claimed increased workload during the COVID-19 pandemic were more likely to be unsatisfied with the SRT program. Participants who were more satisfied with the radiation protection were more likely to report higher degree of SRT satisfaction (OR = 3.00, 95% CI 2.58–3.50). In addition, SRT satisfaction was positively associated with well-being, professional identity, competency and lower burnout. Conclusions: Perceived satisfaction can be introduced into hospital management, as it may reflect the overall situation of the residents during residency training and influence radiologists' well-being, professional identification and competency. Appropriate measures should be taken to reduce the risk of radiation exposure, ensure employee safety (such as risk assessment system and paid time off), provide radiology residents with fair treatment and guarantee the time out of working for optimizing their professional ability. Key points: The radiology residents at all levels in China were systematically landscaped. 68.6% of the 3666 residents reported satisfaction with the residency training. Radiation protection was significantly associated with residency satisfaction. Satisfaction significantly impacts radiology residents' well-being, professional identity and self-reported competency. The findings provide new insights into sustaining and improving the radiology residency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
