One factor in a former mentee’s decision to become a mentor is thought to be satisfaction with the mentorship that the mentee experienced when being mentored but the issue has been addressed in only a few studies. We studied the relationship between interest in becoming a mentor and indirect indicators of satisfaction namely the quality of the mentee’s perceived experiences among 509 peer mentored first year college students who completed an evaluation at the end of the year. The results affirm that relationship but the effect size is very small.
