Abstract
The chiral quark model with a broken U(3) flavor symmetry can be interprete d as the effective theory of instanton-dominated nonperturbative QCD. This naturally suggests the possibility of a negative singlet to octet coupling ratio, which has been found, in a previous publication, to be compatible wi th the phenomenological description of the nucleon spin-flavor structure.
