In the investigation of political participation, one potential influencing factor has so far hardly been considered: it is to a large extent unknown whether perceived influences of (online) media result in increased political (online) participation. To prove this, a survey among the population in the German federal state North Rhine-Westphalia was conducted in the context of an election (n = 485). The results show that perceived strong online influences led to an increase in online communication activities in the election campaign. The findings indicate that the online participation can be hardly interpreted as corrective, but rather as confirmative actions
