    "What is the goal of the research?" should be accepted, shouldn't it?

        Purpose and intention are two different things.

          DL's hints are deceptive. I think that proposito has to do with "de proposito" meaning "intentionally".

          Besides that expression, "propósito" is perfect here.

            Surely objective and purpose is the same!?
