A plurality of events are extracted from a plurality of electronic health records associated with a first patient. The extracted plurality of events are analyzed to identify a plurality of stimulus events and a plurality of response events. An association between a first stimulus event and a first response event is determined. A stimulus-response (SR) variable is generated for the first patient based at least in part on the determined association, and the generated SR variable is integrated into one or more predictive cognitive models.
