How to print true when the column contain a value

Hi there,

 

I want to print true if a certain column contains cells with a certain word. **contain and not equal**

 

the Contain function brings me true for the equal cells only.

 

Is there a specific function or way to do this? 

 

thanks in advance

Also you can create Conditional Column in Power Query
