Referential Quantification/Schiffer: substituents: are not logical constants ((s) = Objects).
In First order logic these can only be singular terms. - Values that the objects are in the domain of discourse - they are examined, in order to obtain the truth value of the sentences with referential quantification.
Substitutional Quantification: here you can have substitutional variable substituents, but no values. But the substituent can have values.
Even in First order logic the expressions can be of every semantic category.
>Substitutional quantification.
Ontological commitment: only for referential quantification.

Function/Referential quantification/Schiffer: functions require referential quantification instead of substitutional quantification. - ((s) The values of these variables must be objects, such as numbers, not linguistic entities).
