Factors influencing retention intention were "married" (β=.27, p<.001) and "employment career (3~5 yr)" (β=-.24, p=.003) in model 1, "person-organization fit" (β=.42, p<.001) in model 2, "content plateau" (β=-.19, p=.020) in model 3. Person-organization fit was the most significant factor followed by content plateau, employment career and married state in that order. These factors explained 33.2% of the variance in retention intention (F=17.23, p<.001).
