Abstract Using the superfield formulation of the N = 1 spinning superparticle model as an example, the superfield currents associated with the target space supersymmetry are given, and the component expression of the corresponding superalgebra is found to describe a graded “doubling” of the Poincare superalgebra. Further, it is shown how the torsion-like term in the spinning super-particle model can be obtained from the form associated with the Green-Schwarz WZ term for the superstring, and a possible way of introducing extended spinning supersymmetric objects is discussed.
