Absolutely. I would certainly be wary of over-interpreting these results but I thought a case study would be useful to show the steps we have begun taking to track our impact. Our strategy update is based on a larger pool of data (250 pre- and post- responses) and facilitator reports.
You are absolutely right about the correlation issue. Aside from self-reports, we employ back-end tracking with The Life You Can Save and our recommended charities. We have just introduced steps to track involvement in the EA community (inclusion of Giving Games in the EA survey), and pledges (One For The World- update to follow).
I will look at your paper today. Thank you so much for sharing and do let me know if you have any further ideas for impact-tracking.
The paper probably won’t contain much useful information for you; I only meant to use it in support of the point that the aforementioned correlations are weak (the rest of the paper is a long, dry literature review).

I’m glad to hear about all of this tracking!
