在对政治参与的调查中，一个潜在的影响因素迄今为止几乎没有被考虑到：在很大程度上，人们不知道（在线）媒体的影响是否会导致政治（在线）参与的增加。为了证明这一点，在德国联邦州北莱茵-威斯特伐利亚州的人口中进行了一项调查，在选举的背景下（n = 485）。结果表明，感知到的强大的在线影响力，导致在竞选活动中的在线通信活动的增加。调查结果表明，在线参与很难被解释为纠正措施，而是确认行动。
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.
