At the start of the study none of the participants was suffering from a stomach ulcer. Each person kept track of the number of hours per week they spent driving in city traffic. At the end of the study each participant underwent tests to determine whether they were suffering from a stomach ulcer.  The researchers analyzed the results to determine whether there was an association between city driving and stomach ulcers.
