Static dipole polarizabilities are calculated from pseudonatural orbital configuration expansion wave functions for the ground states of the atoms Na through Ca with an accuracy estimated to about 2%. The resulting values are (in the order Na-Ca) 165.02, 71.32, 56.27, 36.32, 24.52, 19.60, 14.71, 11.096, 287.6, and 153.9 a.u. The influence of the electron correlation on the polarizabilities is shown to reflect its influence on the radial distribution of the electrons.
