A display device includes a display part, an electrode that applies a pulse to a pixel of the display part, and a control part that controls the application of the pulse, the control part controls the position of the electrode that applies the pulse so as to change at irregular intervals. The control part selects the position of the electrode that applies the pulse alternately from the center toward both ends and densely at the center and sparsely at both ends, or alternately from both ends toward the center and densely at both ends and sparsely at the center and thus selects all the electrodes.
