Yes it is the same effect.
It is interesting that Alan Parker worked on First Blood as a session player.
Did not know this, very interesting! Do you know what instrument?

Unfortunately no way to be sure as the liner notes of Jaws 3-D do not enter into this detail (other than he was a session player on scores by John Barry and on Jerry Goldsmith's First Blood) nor does the First Blood CD includes the list of the session players.
But I imagine it was the guitar. Here is a short bio of Alan Parker that is online:
Mini Biography:
Alan Parker studied orchestration and composition at the Royal Academy of Music and was a founder member and composer with the successful groups Blue Mink and The Congregation. A longtime leading session guitarist and arranger, he has worked with stars such as Dusty Springfield, Neil Diamond, John Denver, Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Tony Bennett, Mick Jagger, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Barbara Streisand and Frank Sinatra.
But his greatest joy was playing for film-scoring idols like Jerry Goldsmith, John Barry, Henry Mancini, Lalo Schifrin and Bill Conti -- sessions that gave him the chance to contribute to the soundtracks of the "First Blood" and James Bond franchises.
Through scoring session contacts, he soon began composing for music libraries, and then graduated to children's shows, commercials and such British television series as "Minder", "Angels" and "The Adventures of Sir Prancelot".
By the time he scored the prestigious telefilm "Philby, Burgess and Maclean", he was a well-established voice in the British scoring community. He was assigned to score "Jaws 3-D" when he was 28. His screen credits include the Ivor Novello Award-nominated "Rhodes", the documentary "Walking with Cavemen", and feature films such as Lasse Hallstrom's "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?".
