Tests a value against a boolean value, where boolean_value can be TRUE, FALSE, or UNKNOWN.
There is an important difference between using IS TRUE or comparing a value with TRUE using =. When using =, only 1 equals to TRUE. But when using IS TRUE, all values which are logically true (like a number > 1) return TRUE.
