What about this link from the LiveCode.com site? https://livecode.com/core-benefits-of-livecode/
It summarizes what LiveCode is and gives a comparison of LiveCode script to code in JavaScript, PHP and Java. It even mentions an academic article: "A 2016 peer reviewed study conducted at Southern Cross University Australia and University of Newcastle”. Unfortunately it does not include a reference to the study. I looked around and found a conference paper in 2015 that probably what they are referring to. Using Cognitive Load Theory to select an Environment for Teaching Mobile Apps Development January 2015 Conference: Australasian Computing Education Conference 2015 (ACE2015) At: Sydney, Australia Volume: 160. Here is a link to that conference paper where you can download it. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/269337987_Using_Cognitive_Load_Theory_to_select_an_Environment_for_Teaching_Mobile_Apps_Development Perhaps this was published in a journal in 2016 or publication in the 2015 conference proceedings is what they are referring to.
