$('.preference').each(function(e){
    if($(this).val() == 1){
        $(this).checked;
    }
});

Answer 1

You were pretty close, but checked attribute is for JS object, not Jquery. For JQuery you set it's attribute "checked" to checked:

$('.preference').each(function(e){
    if($(this).val() == 1){
        $(this).attr("checked", "checked");
    }
});

Here is a JSFiddle

You can use this function

 function isCheckedById(id) { alert(id); var checked = $("input[@id=" + id + "]:checked").length; alert(checked); if (checked == 1) { return false; } else { return true; } }
