1886 Encycl. Brit. XX. 65/2 The fixation of attention..is probably not in the first instance perceived as time, i.e. as continuous ‘protensity’, to use a term of Hamilton's.

1889 Mind 14 112 There is a respectable body of evidence for the existence of this characteristic of all sensation [sc. extensity]; evidence too, that it shows it to be in all respects co-ordinate with intensity and protensity.

1920 S. Alexander Space, Time & Deity II. 130 The ‘protensity’ of sensation is nothing but its continuance, that is, again, a continuous repetition of the sensation in time.

1964 Jakobson & Halle in D. Abercrombie et al. Daniel Jones 99 The tense/lax opposition should..be..viewed as a separate, ‘protensity’ feature which..corresponds to the quantity features in the prosodic field.

2000 J. E. Roeckelein Concept of Time Psychol. 52 The definition of time..refers to a fundamental directional aspect of experience, based on direct experience of the protensity (duration) of sensation.
