Ah, I made a mistake since I thought prov:plan was represented in XML the same way we represent the rest of the PROV-DM attributes.

It should be (as you suggested):

  <prov:activity prov:id="ex:correct"/>

  <prov:entity prov:id="ex:instructions">
    <prov:type>prov:Plan</prov:type>
  </prov:entity>

  <prov:agent prov:id="ex:edith">
    <prov:type>prov:Person</prov:type>
  </prov:agent>

  <prov:wasAssociatedWith>
    <prov:activity prov:ref="ex:correct"/>
    <prov:agent prov:ref="ex:edith"/>
    <prov:plan prov:ref="ex:instructions"/>
  </prov:wasAssociatedWith>

  <prov:wasGeneratedBy>
    <prov:entity prov:ref="ex:dataSet2"/>
    <prov:activity prov:ref="ex:correct"/>
  </prov:wasGeneratedBy>
