Hi Sergio,

From what I've read in the Oracle's Admin Guide I would say you're correct:

****snip****
schema
A named collection of objects, such as tables, views, clusters, procedures, and packages, associated with a particular user.
************

I guess they break it down to what is available to a particular user...
