Find if an array of objects includes an attribute with a specific value

The following code works, but can you tell me if this is the right way to do it?

I have an array of Position objects and I want to check if it contains an object which attribute 'hidden' has "false' value:

<% if positions.collect{|position| position.hidden}.include?(false) %>
  ...
<% end %>

you can also use all? method:

<% unless positions.all? {|position| position.hidden} %>
 ...
<% end %>
