There's a DL crew who now knows it's better to get on the binders and reversers yourself rather than wait. Happened in 1997/98 in CLE. They didn't arm the autospoilers so the brakes didn't brake and by the time they got around to realizing it they were the subject of much attention from the gray concrete building across the airfield off their right wing. Of course when AA did the same thing the very next night the focus changed rather quickly.
As to studies done:
TWA did a couple in the 80's and that's perhaps the strongest reason why there were no autobrakes on the MD80's.
They used to rebuild their own engines in MCI so they were in a unique position to make the observations and evaluations.
Use the reversers, it's cheaper and safer, was the result.
