Components of {alpha}-particle wave functions corresponding to {ital d}-{ital d} configurations are used to predict analyzing powers in the ({ital d},{alpha}) reaction. Tensor analyzing powers, especially {ital A}{sub {ital x}{ital x}}, are shown to clearly distinguish between wave functions generated by different realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions. Data for the {sup 58}Ni({ital d},{alpha}){sup 56}Co reaction to the 7{sup +} stretched-nucleon-orbital state at 2.283-MeV excitation in {sup 56}Co, measured with 22-MeV deuterons, are compared to predictions from the Argonne and Urbana interactions. Similar comparisons are made to data for the lowest {ital J} {sup {pi}}=7{sup +} state in {sup 48}Sc populated by the {sup 50}Ti({ital d},{alpha}){sup 48}Sc reaction at 16 MeV.
