Definition
A person who believes in or advocates for correction as a means of reform, especially in education or criminal justice.
Etymology
From 'correction' plus '-al' plus '-ist' suffix, creating an ideology-based noun for someone who supports corrective approaches to human improvement.
Kelly Says
Correctionalists believe you can fix human behavior through systematic correction—this philosophy has shaped everything from prisons to schools, though it's often been harshly criticized.
