Research about the effect of leading, line length, etc. on legibility
is cited in the book "Words into Type", 3rd. ed., Prentice Hall.
Sir Cyril Burt is cited in particular: A Psychological Study of Typography,
Cambridge University Press, London, 1959. Also mentioned is Miles Tinker,
Legibility of Print, Iowa State University Press, 1963, which is supposed
to include an annotated bibliography. I would also suggest searching the
psychology bibliography that many libraries have on CD ROM these days.
