According to Lent and Brown (2006) job satisfaction model, there are five components which are related to job satisfaction: (1) personality and affective traits, (2) goals and goal-directed activity, (3) self-efficacy, (4) work conditions, and (5) work related goal support. The present study aims to investigate the relationship between science teachers’ job satisfaction and their self-efficacy to teach science, work conditions and their perceptions about goal support environment. TIMSS 2011 data of Turkey were used in the current study. 239 science teachers from Turkey participated in TIMSS in 2011. According to the multiple linear regression analysis results, science teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs and their work conditions have significant contribution to explain their job satisfaction. Moreover, the predictor variables account for 15% of variance in Turkish science teachers’ job satisfaction.
