How can I check that a checkbox has been checked or unchecked and get its value?

Check boxes can be verified if checked by the variable's checked 
property.

For instance if your algorithm was:
if checkBoxVariable is checked then do task...

Your code would look something like:
if (document.Form.Variable.checked) {
  // do task
  // return
  }

If you wanted to see if it is UNchecked then:
if (!document.Form.Variable.checked) {
  // do task
  // return
  }
