"Ashkenazi Jews have an unusual ability profile as well as higher than average IQ. They
have high verbal and mathematical scores, while their visuospatial abilities are typically
somewhat lower, by about one half a standard deviation, than the European average
(Levinson, 1977; Levinson and Block, 1977). Han Eysenck (Eysenck, 1995) noted “The
correlation between verbal and performance tests is about 0.77 in the general population,
but only 0.31 among Jewish children. Differences of 10-20 points have been found in
samples of Jewish children; there is no other group that shows anything like this size
difference.” The Ashkenazi pattern of success is what one would expect from this ability
distribution-great success in mathematics and literature, more typical results in
representational painting, sculpture, and architecture."
Note: more typical results in the arts and spatially demanding subjects
They aren't visually retarded they're just not as exceptional as NW Europeans which isn't a serious inhibitory influence over Jewish participation in Mathematics and Physics. Minkowski was Jewish, Jacobi was Jewish, and Calabi was Jewish.
