The inclusive vector analyzing power [ital iT][sub 11] of [pi][sup +][r arrow][sup 7]Li elastic scattering and inelastic scattering to the 0.47 MeV excited state was measured at several angles for [ital T][sub [pi]]=134, 164, and 194 MeV. The polarization effects were found to be small but nonzero, the trend of the data is well described by a coupled channels calculation. The results of the calculation are more sensitive to variations of the nuclear structure input than to variations of the reaction mechanism.
