The dependent variable was online learning satisfaction. Independent variable were knowledge, attitude, and perception. Data were collected using questionnaire and analyzed using multiple logistic regression. High knowledge (OR= 1.94; 95%CI= 1.07 to 3.51; p= 0.029), positive attitude (OR=1.96; 95%CI= 1.08 to 3.55; p= 0.026), and positive perception (OR= 7.02; 95%CI= 3.90 to 12.63; p< 0.001) increased the positive medical student’s satisfaction towards online learning during pandemic COVID-19.
