Hadron scattering is shown to be sensitive to the relative sign of neutron and proton transition matrix elements. The relative signs for the 2/sub 2//sup +/ states are determined to be positive for /sup 26/Mg, /sup 30/Si, and /sup 42/Ca, and negative for /sup 34/S on the basis of proton differential cross-section measurements at 650 and 800 MeV. Suppression of the one-step amplitude in the /sup 34/S 2/sub 2//sup +/ state causes the interference of one-step and multistep reactions to be experimentally apparent.
