title: Validated Booleans
---
Booleans are very simple things. Explicit validation is typically only needed for use in other validation or to gate it with conditions.
```java !!tabs Java
public boolean mySimpleBoolean = true; // this will work fine.
public ValidatedBoolean myValidatedBoolean = new ValidatedBoolean(); // typically not needed; ValidatedBoolean might be used if you are making something like a ValidatedMap.
```
```kotlin !!tabs Kotlin
var mySimpleBoolean = true // this will work fine.
var myValidatedBoolean = ValidatedBoolean() // typically not needed; ValidatedBoolean might be used if you are making something like a ValidatedMap.
```
### Conditions
`ValidatedBoolean` can be used as an input condition for a `ValidatedCondition`. See [Conditional Settings](../Validation#-conditional-settings-) to learn more.
