When testing the value of a checkbox, you should always use the construct similar to this:

 <xsl:if test="sc:fld('my checkbox field', .) ='1'"> 
    <xsl:text>The box is checked</xsl:text> 
  </xsl:if>
as the value of a field may be blank (in which case the checkbox is unchecked).

Valid default values:

• 1 stands for ‘checked’;
• 0 stands for ‘unchecked’.

Source:

Client view:  

Valid default value:

A set of GUIDs separated by pipes (‘|’):

{DDF10A96-C7ED-46CA-836B-41DE58A17F5D}|{F0144930-508C-421C-99F8-77B7D50538C4}

If the default value is set, the items which correspond to the specified GUIDs will appear as checked in the list.

Children of the Item specified here will appear in the checklist.

Sample source value: /sitecore/content/Home/Countries
