Russian term

целенаправленный

Russian to English Other Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
Исследования должны носить общенациональный характер и охватывать различные социальные группы. Они должны быть целенаправленными, по возможности более широкими, как по масштабам проведения, так и по количеству опрашиваемых респондентов.

Would this be "purposeful", as in the dictionary, or "targeted"?

targeted

I think "purposeful" means something different: pursued with great dedication, with a high degree of purpose - which is not the meaning here.

Peer comment(s):

agree GaryG : I like "purposeful" (sic), because to me "targetted" presupposes "targets", that is, specific areas of concentration/investigation

I agree
neutral Dorene Cornwell : in slightly different context, for sure. I like targeted here because of the limiting parameters mentioned.
