If-statement not functioning properly in NetBeans

I got this code down below:

private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                         
    // TODO add your handling code here:
    Integer intNumber = (Integer)jComboBox1.getSelectedIndex();
    String text = null;

    if (intNumber <= 3) {
        text = "Less than or equal to three";
    } else if (intNumber > 3) {
        text = "Bigger than three";
    }
    jLabel1.setText(text);
}

But if I run this code in Netbeans and choose 4 (which is bigger than 3) in the Combobox, the jLabel1 prints out "Less than or equal to three", even though it obviously is bigger. Could someone explain why?

Try this code. You used getSelectedIndex() instead of getSelectedItem().

private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                         
    // TODO add your handling code here:
    Integer intNumber = (Integer)jComboBox1.getSelectedItem();
    String text = null;

    if (intNumber <= 3) {
        text = "Less than or equal to three";
    } else if (intNumber > 3) {
        text = "Bigger than three";
    }
    jLabel1.setText(text);
}
