Abstract
A general construction of the Holst action is discussed. Based on this, the N = 1, 2, 4, 8 supergravities and N = 1 supergravities with matter coupling are presented. It is shown that in all these cases the Immirzi parameter does not influence the field equations. The construction ensures that the theory is invariant under supersymmetry as well as gauge transformations, but the Holst extension breaks parity.
