Adaptation of the Technostress Scale in Teleworking Teachers in Mexico

The psychometric properties were analyzed to adapt the technostress scale for teleworking teachers in the Mexican population. The sample consisted of 219 university teachers in telework mode. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted using SPSS Statistics and AMOS Graphics to assess the validity and reliability of the model. The results showed that three valid dimensions were retained (F1 α = 0.853, F2 α = 0.744, F3 α = 0.770), with a total of 9 items explaining 72.5% of the variance. Regarding reliability, the fit indices were satisfactory, with a CMIN of 3.514, CFI of 0.929, NFI of 0.905, TLI of 0.893, and RMSEA of 0.107. Finally, practical recommendations are provided for organizations implementing new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) or telework systems that aim to measure, prevent, or identify cases of technostress.
