A doubler part 10 doubles the frequencies of video signals. A drive control circuit 34 generates, in response to a synchronizing signal outputted from the doubler part 10, PWM dimming frequency information such that a PWM dimming frequency f and a black display ratio B satisfy the relationships and B>10, and provides such information to a PWM dimming signal generation circuit 17. In addition, the drive control circuit 34 drives a gate driver 12 and a source driver 13 in a manner such that one frame period is divided into an image display period and a black display period. The PWM dimming signal generation circuit 17 generates, in response to a synchronizing signal and the PWM dimming frequency information, a PWM dimming signal and provides the PWM dimming signal to a lighting circuit 16. The lighting circuit 16 activates a backlight device 15 with dimming, in response to the PWM dimming signal. This configuration reduces colored interference fringes in a liquid crystal display device resulting from the combination of a black insertion drive technique and a PWM dimming technique.
