$model->field('activated');
This makes a select on the database and if you set $model->id before
you should get the activated status of this id. Maybe if you dont set
the id it selects the first entry. http://book.cakephp.org/de/view/453/field
$this->data['TermolinoWord']['activated'];
This comes out of a form and represents the status of the checkbox in
this form.
So these two things are different and shouldnt get the same result.
