An active matrix substrate includes a thin film transistor, a scanning signal line, and a data signal line disposed on the substrate. A gate electrode of the transistor is connected to the scanning signal line, a source electrode thereof is connected to the data signal line, and a drain electrode thereof is connected to a pixel electrode; and an upper electrode is disposed so as to oppose a storage capacitor wiring pattern at least via an insulating layer. Within a pixel region, the upper electrode includes three divided electrodes in a region opposing the storage capacitor wiring pattern, and a central divided electrode of the three divided electrodes has the smallest area.
