Individuals performance and productivity is determined by organizational climate and his personal qualities. Attitude is one of these important qualities that play a pivotal role in executing the action of an individual. The study was conducted in six regions of the Republic of Yemen with 189 respondents consisting of 96 extensionists and 93 researchers in order to understand the effect of factors probably affecting the personnel's attitude towards R-E (Research -Extension) linkages to improve their effectiveness and efficiency and to foster their use in a more appropriate and fruitful manner so as to make them with the cost involved in their organisation. The characteristics of respondents that have proven significant association towards the attitude of respondents relating to R-E linkages need to be seriously considered by authorities. Respondents should have an opportunity to pursue their education, improve academic qualification, improve their income, be satisfied with various aspects of their job and have a leadership that is capable of inducing motivation for higher achievement followed by provision of facilities and resources that would enable them to carry their duties pertaining to R-E linkages such as monthly workshops, joint survey and visits, the regional technical committee meetings, training programs etc., with more favorable attitude. Only then their participation in R-E linkages would be more fruitful, productive and up to the level of expectation.
