My company UI team just had similar discussion not long ago. Yes, in human factors there's the logic of luminance and illuminance. Personally, i will go for black text on off-white (light grey) background if the task involves lots of text and user are required to read it. The font type, leading, spacing plays an important role in readability...so i guess it really depends on usage.
