This study aims understand academics' technostress by examining effects of information communications (ICT) self-efficacy work-home conflict on techno-stressors (techno-overload, techno-complexity, techno-invasion, techno-insecurity, techno-uncertainty) and, furthermore, how impact psychological well-being. A research model is proposed based previous literature. sample 251 from several higher education institutions in China was collected analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results modelling reveal that: (a) ICT significantly negatively associated with techno-complexity techno-insecurity; (b) Work-home a crucial contributor techno-overload, techno-invasion; (c) Among five typical techno-stressors, only techno-invasion decreases informs organizations should improve self-efficacy, monitor well-being promptly replace outdated facilities, assign dedicated personnel responsible maintenance problem-solving. Academics adjust themselves seek compatibility between family.
