Are you measuring increased contest participation or simply increased log submissions? The evolution and globablization of computerized contesting and electronic communicating have made contesting logging and log submission a lot easier than before. Other factors such as the fall of the iron curtain must have some positive effect on log submissions, particularly DX logs.

Measuring participation per se would be more problematic. You would need to analyze logs for distinct callsigns worked per contest, create a database of folks participating in contests, then analyze those numbers, etc. In the meantime, to equate increased log submission with increased participation seems tenuous.
