A process or prominence; any projecting appendage.

Any act or process of throwing forward. In the physiology of the senses this term is used to denote the fact that we refer some of the sensations to the point in the body at which the stimulus acts, or to some point outside of the body at which the stimulus originates. The most perfect projection is made with visual sensations; each point on the retina, when stimulated, gives a sensation which is projected to the exterior along the secondary axis, passing through the point stimulated and the nodal point of the eye.

In psycho-analysis the process by which mental conflict is displaced upon an object of the external world, usually in distorted form.
