Whorf Hypothesis in Scientific American
Thanks to James Jennings of the Loglanists List for referencing this
article, which describes several recent confirmatory experiments for Whorf
effects, one of which apparently involving an artificial language (other
than Lojban), so we may start to be able to find linguists who will be
interested in trying to work with Lojban.

The SA article in turn points to
http://www.sunflower.com/~dewatson/alford.htm
which has an extensive set of papers that are pro-Whorfian hypothesis. I
haven't had time to read these though.
