Can anyone confirm the first name of R.J. Blake in the citation below?

Gold, Paul B.; Engdahl, Brian E.; Eberly, Raina E.; Blake, R.J.; Page,
William F. and Frueh, B. Christopher.  ?Trauma Exposure, Resilience,
Social Support, and PTSD Construct Validity Among Former Prisoners of
War.?  Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology, February 2000,
35(1), pp. 36-42.

The author affiliation listed in the article is University of Minnesota.

I *suspect* that the author is Rex James Blake, who received a PhD
from U Minnesota in 1994 and has written the article cited below.

Rex J. Blake, Earl H. Potter, Richard E. Slimak, Validation of the
structural scales of the CPI for predicting the performance of junior
officers in the U. S. Coast Guard, Journal of Business and Psychology,
Volume 7, Issue 4, Jun 1993, Pages 431-448.

Can anyone find some source to confirm the first name of the R.J.
Blake who was a co-author in the first article?

Thank you very much!
Chris

Toughy!  I don't think he is the U Minn guy who is a numbers person.
There is some trace of our guy (girl) in the Charleston, SC area . . .
and/or Veteran's Administration.

No guarantees, but I think he is.  I have access to the full-text
article you cited above from Social Psychiatry.  At the bottom of the
first page, it says the following about RJ Blake (see below).  It
doesn't look like he is affiliated with the university anymore, so you
can't find a list of his publications there.

There is a brief bio of him on this website, but it doesn't list his
publications either.

So, unless there were two people named RJ Blake in the field of
psychology at U Minn, it looks like it's the same guy.

* This work was funded in part by the Medical Follow-up Agency
of the National Academy of Sciences, and the Department of
Veterans A€airs. Portions of this work were presented at the 1994
Annual Meeting of the American Psychological Association, Los
Angeles.

Thanks!  I didn't notice that part about the presentation in LA.  So
that means parts of the project were already underway when Rex Blake
was a graduate student -- which makes him seem like a more likely
candidate & might possibly explain the delayed U Minnesota
affiliation.
