For this purpose, in a driving method for a plasma display apparatus including a plasma display panel with a plurality of discharge cells having a scan electrode, a sustain electrode, and a data electrode, and a driver circuit, the following operation is performed. The driver circuit forms one field period by a subfield that displays an interlace signal as an image signal thinned out every one line and a subfield that displays oblique line interpolated data generated by interpolating oblique lines detected by an image signal. In the subfield displaying an image signal, the driver circuit performs two-line simultaneous address operation with application of a scan pulse simultaneously to two adjacent scan electrodes so as to generate an address discharge in a discharge cell.
