If I put it in the form bean constructor wouldn't it cause the field value to be always "true" no matter if the user unchecks it and submit the form. As far as I can recall a checkbox field should be reset to false before the form population.

This can be done in the form bean constructor (if you want this initial value all the time), or -- more typical for an update scenario -- you can execute a "setup" action that pre-fills the form bean (perhaps from information loaded from a database) before forwarding to the page.
