Abstract
Frequency of blinking and rate of reading records were obtained from 60 university students while reading text printed in lower case and in all-capitals. There was no significant difference in rate of blinking while reading test in all-capitals in comparison with lower case. But in every comparison made, text in all-capitals was read significantly slower than text in lower case. It is concluded that frequency of blinking is an unsatisfactory criterion of readability of print.
