Starting from the temperature dependencies of the energy density and pressure from lattice QCD calculation, we extract the temperature dependencies of the electric and magnetic condensate near T{sub c}. While the magnetic condensate hardly changes across T{sub c}, we find that the electric condensate increases abruptly above T{sub c}. This induces a small but equally abrupt decrease in the mass of J/{psi}, which can be calculated through the second-order Stark effect. Combining the present result with the previously determined QCD sum rule constraint, we extract the thermal width of J/{psi} above T{sub c}, which also increases fast. These changes can be identified as the critical behavior of J/{psi} across T{sub c} associated with the phase transition. We find that the mass shift and width broadening of J/{psi} at 1.05T{sub c} will be around -100 MeV and 100 MeV, respectively.
