Angular distributions of the polarization transfer coefficients K /subx// sup prime//subx/, K /subx//sup prime//subz/, and K /sup yprime//suby/ (Wolfenstein parameters R, A, and D) were measured at 16.2 MeV for $sup 3$He(p,p) elastic scattering. The angular range covered was 30degree to 90degree (lab) in 10degree steps. The experiment used a polarized proton beam of 150 to 200 nA, a liquid-nitrogen cooled $sup 3$He gas target, and a $sup 4$He-filled proton polarimeter. The transfer coefficients are well described by an R-matrix analysis of the p-$sup 3$He system. (AIP)
