Liquid crystal display device, driving method for the liquid crystal display device, and electronic apparatus

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a display pixel in which liquid crystal is held between a first electrode and a common electrode;
• a driving circuit that temporally alternately applies, to the first electrode, a first voltage further on a high-order side than a predetermined reference voltage and corresponding to gradation of the display pixel and a second voltage further on a low-order side than the predetermined reference voltage and corresponding to the gradation and applies a predetermined voltage to the common electrode, the first voltage being positive and the second voltage being negative;
• a dummy pixel in which liquid crystal is held between a second electrode and the common electrode;
• a measuring signal circuit that supplies, to the second electrode, a measuring signal for applying the first voltage further on the high-order side than the reference voltage and the second voltage further on the low-order side than the reference voltage while temporally shifting the first and second voltages;
• and
• a control circuit that changes a ratio of effective voltages of the positive voltage and the negative voltage, which are applied to the first electrode by the driving circuit, on the basis of a first electric current obtained by excluding an instantaneous current due to the application of the first voltage from an electric current flowing to the common electrode after the first voltage is applied to the second electrode and a second electric current obtained by excluding an instantaneous current due to the application of the second voltage from an electric current flowing to the common electrode after the second voltage is applied to the second electrode.
