Abstract: (Elsevier)

Recently noted modifications of the quantization rules for supergravity can be understood within the framework of conventional covariant quantization, proveded one uses a formulation of the theory in which the supersymmetry algebra closes. Using such a formulation due to Breitenlohner we discuss the quantization, and are naturally led to terms quartic in the ghost fields in the quantum action.
