Abstract	Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between ambivalent sexism perception and job satisfaction of health professionals. Material and method: The research was conducted in a descriptive manner and its universe consisted of physicians and nurses working in the internal medicine and surgical clinics of SBU Gülhane Training and Research Hospital between May and August 2023. The sample size calculation universe was calculated with the known sample formula and the study included 145 physicians and 145 nurses, a total of 290 people who volunteered to participate. In the study, data were collected with the ‘‘Socio-demographic Information Form’’, ‘‘Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI)’’ and ‘‘Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ)’’ and the data were analyzed by SPSS 23 package program. Findings: A positive correlation was determined between ambivalent sexism and job satisfaction (p<0.05). However, while a relationship was found in the context of gender and marital status in the MSQ, a significant relationship was found in the context of gender, profession, age group, working years and the idea of continuing the profession in the MSQ (p<0.05). In the context of gender, it was determined that men had higher general and benevolent sexism scores, and men had higher external and general satisfaction scores, but when examined in the context of profession, no relationship was found between sexism and profession, and it was found that doctors had higher levels of satisfaction in job satisfaction and its sub-dimensions than nurses. Conclusion: As a result of the research data, the relationship between ambivalent sexism and job satisfaction in health professionals was examined and a positive significant relationship was found.
