The Distribution of Visual Information in the Vertical Dimension of Roman and Hebrew Letters.
Shimron, Joseph; Navon, David
Visible Language, v14 n1 p5-12 1980
English and Hebrew native speakers read texts mutilated by removing strips at the top or bottom of lines. Reading English texts was impaired more by mutilating the top, but the reverse was found for Hebrew texts, due to the different ways information is distributed along the vertical axis of Roman and Hebrew letters.
