The purpose of this study was to evaluate the screening performance of a 100\u2010mL water swallowing test (WST).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study employed a cross\u2010sectional design. Participants were 304 (65 men and 239 women, mean age\u2009=\u200980\u2009years) Japanese community\u2010dwelling older adults aged over 65\u2009years. We investigated swallowing disorder using the 10\u2010item Eating Assessment Tool (EAT\u201010), and compared choking signs, swallowing time and number of swallows, and their combination in the 100\u2010mL WST. We calculated the sensitivity and specificity of these indices. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cut\u2010off value of swallowing time and number of swallows in the 100\u2010mL WST based on the Youden Index among participants without choking signs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The sensitivity and specificity of choking signs in the 100\u2010mL WST were 20% and 91%, respectively. The discriminating ability of swallowing time and number of swallows among participants without any choking signs was .76 and .72, respectively, in the area under the ROC curve. Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity to discriminate dysphagia from normal swallowing ability were 65% and 74% when the cut\u2010off was &gt;10\u2009s based on maximisation of the Youden Index. The 100\u2010mL WST performed best when the indices of choking signs and swallowing time were combined, with a sensitivity and specificity of 72% and 68%,
