True IF statement goes on else branch

Can someone please tell me why this statement goes on the else branch ?

public boolean isAutoCheckForNewTickets(String accountID) {
    settingsTableAdapter = new SettingsTableAdapter(this);
    int checkSelected= settingsTableAdapter
            .getCheckSelected(accountGUID);
    if (checkSelected == 1)
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}

I mention that the checkSelected value is 1 after the database interrogation. It doesn't make any sense for me.
