The construction being vs. the construction's being

"You've dispeled my doubts about the construction being present subjunctive in passive voice." => noun, slightly less formal

"You've dispeled my doubts about the construction's being present subjunctive in passive voice." => a possesive form, officially considered more formal

Are those presumptions correct?

Thank you profusely in advance.
