Dear Leigh,
Mary C Dyson and Mark Haselgrove (2001) wrote a paper about a study which
they conducted at the University of Reading on the influence of reading
speed and line length on screen. You can find more related papers in their
bibliography section which may be useful to you.
The full reference to the paper:
Dyson, M.C. & Haselgrove, M. (2001) 'The influence of reading speed and line
length on the effectiveness of reading from screen.' in International
Journal Human-Computer Studies, 54, 585-612. (available online at

Best of luck.
Regards,
Joyce
