AngularJS - Binding radio buttons to models with boolean values

The correct approach in Angularjs is to use ng-value for non-string values of models.

Modify your code like this:

<label data-ng-repeat="choice in question.choices">
  <input type="radio" name="response" data-ng-model="choice.isUserAnswer" data-ng-value="true" />
  {{choice.text}}
</label>

That's an odd approach with isUserAnswer. Are you really going to send all three choices back to the server where it will loop through each one checking for isUserAnswer == true? If so, you can try this:

HTML:

<input type="radio" name="response" value="true" ng-click="setChoiceForQuestion(question1, choice)"/>

JavaScript:

$scope.setChoiceForQuestion = function (q, c) {
    angular.forEach(q.choices, function (c) {
        c.isUserAnswer = false;
    });

    c.isUserAnswer = true;
};

Alternatively, I'd recommend changing your tack:

http://jsfiddle.net/hgxjv/5/

<input type="radio" name="response" value="{{choice.id}}" ng-model="question1.userChoiceId"/>

That way you can just send {{question1.userChoiceId}} back to the server.
