Single polarization observables {Sigma}, P, and T are investigated for the nucleon (p, n) and the trinucleon ({sup 3}He, {sup 3}H). The threshold E{sub 0+} and the resonance M{sub 1+} and E{sub 1+} multipoles are particularly studied. For the reaction {sup 3}He({gamma}, {pi}{sup +}){sup 3}H a recently developed nonlocal coupled-channel approach is presented that employs three-body Faddeev amplitudes and incorporates two-step processes such as {sup 3}He({gamma}, {pi}{sup o}){sup 3}He({pi}{sup o}, {pi}{sup +}){sup 3}H. Enhancement effects of the contributions from small components of the {sup 3}He wave function as well as from the {Delta} resonance E2 transition to the polarization observables have been found.
