    "abstract": "Strengthening semantic and orthographic associations among\nwords in a lexicon may help to improve memory processes\nrelated to fluent organizing and retrieval of language. In the\npresent study, we examined how training in several different\nword games impacts later retrieval access for the words.\nGames included a word-stem completion task (orthographic),\na free association task (semantic), and a crossword paradigm\ntask (orthographic+semantic). A within-subject experiment\nwas used to compare the relative effectiveness of these three\ntraining methods on a lexical association task performed prior\nto and following training. Results showed that the games were\nable to improve participants’ decision times, and the increased\nfluency in the lexical association task due to the free association\ntask was greater than the other games. We will further\napply and examine this study with non-native English speakers.",
