 Some of my friends offered insightful comments, and one [pointed out](https://twitter.com/johnclevenger/status/639795727439429632) that there appeared to be a failure of random assignment. Participants in the "disease risk" group happened to have lower scores on the survey and therefore had more room for improvement. This is a fair criticism, but I found that post-intervention scores alone were higher for the "disease risk" group, which addresses this problem.
