In three-body models of halo nuclei such as He-6, Pauli blocking is needed
to remove components of the halo wave function that would disappear under f
ull antisymmetrization. We compare a full projection-operator method with t
wo others presently used for the purpose. A range of differences is found,
small for bound states and resonances but larger for nonresonant continuum
states. We indicate discriminating characteristics sensitive to the off-she
ll behavior.
