If you are not familiar with a power dink, it is an action where the hitter takes the ball in their finger tips and pushes the ball down on the opponents court. There is some prolonged contact and has not been called a lift/carry as long as the player does not break their wrist either in a side or snapping down motion. They also must begin their contact from in front of their body. If it where to begin from behind the body/head, then it has been called a carry. The one handed set is an action where a player will push the ball to a hitter with the ball on their finger tips and there is some prolonged contact. In short and answer to your question is yes as long as the player does not change the direction of the ball with wrist movement. It's almost as if the wrist must be in a locked position, straight from the arm. This has been an accepted play in volleyball everywhere I've played, coached, and refered. That covers six states and DC and I've yet to see it called differently, with a few exceptions.
