## Abstract

We explore the relationship between the ionized gas outflows and radio activity using a sample of $\sim$ 6000 AGNs at z < 0.4 with the kinematical measurement based on the [O III] line profile and the radio detection in the VLA FIRST Survey. To quantify radio activity, we divide our sample into a series of binary subclasses based on the radio properties, i.e., radio-luminous/radio-weak, AGN-dominated/star-formation-contaminated, compact/extended, and radio-loud/radio-quiet. None of the binary subclasses exhibits a significant difference in the normalized [O III] velocity dispersion at a given [O III] luminosity once we correct for the influence of the host galaxy gravitational potential. We only detect a significant difference of [O III] kinematics between high and low radio-Eddington ratio (L$_{1.4 GHz}$/L$_{Edd}$) AGNs. In contrast, we find a remarkable difference in ionized gas kinematics between high and low bolometric-Eddington ratio AGNs. These results suggest that accretion rate is the primary mechanism in driving ionized gas outflows, while radio activity may play a secondary role providing additional influence on gas kinematics
