Here's what Guido van Rossum writes about it:
"Python’s use of indentation comes directly from ABC, but this idea 
didn’t originate with ABC--it had already been promoted by Donald Knuth 
and was a well-known concept of programming style. (The occam 
programming language also used it.) However, ABC’s authors did invent 
the use of the colon that separates the lead-in clause from the indented 
block.

----> After early user testing without the colon, it was discovered that 
the meaning of the indentation was unclear to beginners being taught the 
first steps of programming. <----

The addition of the colon clarified it significantly: the colon somehow 
draws attention to what follows and ties the phrases before and after it 
together in just the right way."

If that passage is correct, those studies don't say that adding the 
colon increases the readability, but that it makes more sense to 
beginners who don't even know what indentation is.
