Abstract
In one embodiment of the present invention, a display device includes: a display section in which a plurality of data signal lines and a plurality of scan signal lines are provided, the display section including (i) a first region including some of the plurality of scan signal lines to which a first scan signal is sequentially supplied and (ii) a second region including the others of the plurality of scan signal lines to which a second scan signal is sequentially supplied; and waveform adjusting sections for causing the first scan signal to have a waveform, during an active period, which is different from a waveform which the second scan signal has during an active period. This allows a display device, which drives a display section divided into a plurality of regions, to reduce a difference in luminance between the regions.
