Check which one is selected and return the appropriate value (whether that is a boolean, a String, an enum, or something else is up to you). Where are you getting stuck with that?

JRadioButton has an isSelected() method that will tell you whether it has been selected.

ButtonGroup has a getSelection() method that returns the selected ButtonModel.
