Abstract
A display device includes: a display unit in which light-emitting pixels are disposed in rows and columns; and a control circuit controlling the display unit. The light-emitting pixels each include: a light-emitting element (organic EL element); and a drive transistor which supplies the light-emitting element with a current causing the light-emitting element to emit light, and the control circuit, when display by the display unit is stopped, calculates an amount of shift of a threshold voltage of the drive transistor at a time when a stopped state of the display unit is started, and determines on the basis of the amount of shift, at least one of (i) a recovery voltage which reduces the amount of shift by being applied across a gate and source of the drive transistor while the display by the display unit is stopped, and (ii) an application period during which the recovery voltage is applied.
