Our results revealed that social influence variables explain a significant portion of variance in online political participation independently from the antecedents identified by prior literature. While social identity and group norms were significantly related with political expressive participation in Twitter, subjective norms had no significant effect. Findings are discussed within the scope of Gezi Park protests and future research directions are suggested.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTwitterPolitical ParticipationSocial İnfluence#OccupygeziEfficacyMediaCategorizationSocietyArticle2-s2.0-8491986548610.1080/1369118X.2014.923480161Q1118Q1WOS:000343233500001
