A pixel driving method applied to a pixel driving circuit for driving a light emitting element,

• the pixel driving method comprising:
• during an initialization stage of the pixel driving circuit, controlling a first light emitting control unit and a second light emitting control unit of the pixel driving circuit to be turned on, and controlling a first charging control unit, a second charging control unit and a third light emitting control unit of the pixel driving circuit to be turned off, thereby initializing the pixel driving circuit;
• during a compensation stage of the pixel driving circuit, controlling the first light emitting control unit and the second light emitting control unit to be turned off, and controlling the first charging control unit, the second charging control unit and the third light emitting control unit to be turned on, so that a storage unit of the pixel driving circuit is charged until a voltage across the storage unit is equal to Vdata−Vref+Vth, wherein Vth is a threshold voltage of a driving unit of the pixel driving circuit;
