I can't find them, but a lot of studies were done on type legibility when Hoefler Frere-Jones redesigned the typeface for the US interstate signage system. They made a lot of interesting findings, such as a word with an inital cap followed by lowercase was more legible than all caps or all lowercase; or that lowercase 'L's are more easily read when they have a small hook at the bottom, as opposed to jut being a straight line.
