Instance
A more specific variant of a given schema. Instances of schemas serve to sanction particular instantiations. These instances, like the more general schema, are entrenched and thus constitute part of the language user 's mental grammar. These are stored together with the more abstract schema as a structured network of schemas. The relationship between a schema and its instances is known as schema-instance organization.
