Abstract:

This paper as the title indicates, would attempt to address two major areas on the extent of availability and use of research services in the countries of the Arabian Gulf and will particularly focus on very important aspects of the implementation using standard research instruments. There are two parts in this paper: I. The needs and uses of research services in the Arabian Gulf Countries. II. The Implementation of research procedures: A return to basics. The second part of this paper will expose and comment on certain interesting findings using data from fieldwork statistics and tests concerned with the resistance to interviewing and research practice in Kuwait.
