Is ssh supposed to run commands in terminal?

[Yuri <yuri@xxxxxxxxx>]

I noticed that this command returns NO through ssh:
> $ ssh user@host "if [ -t 1 ]; then echo YES; else echo NO; fi"
> NO
and YES when run locally (of course):
> $ if [ -t 1 ]; then echo YES; else echo NO; fi
> YES

I can't find any command line option related to running command remotely 
in terminal. I think users intuitively expect commands to be run in 
terminal.
Is something broken with my ssh setup?

ssh on FreeBSD 10.1
