Display device and method for controlling display device

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for controlling a display device includes inputting frame data for each frame input period of a vertical synchronization signal, accumulating stress data for some pixels in predetermined accumulation units based on the frame data for each blank period of the vertical synchronization signal, accumulating an input time of the frame data, calculating a correction gain value for correcting the accumulated stress data based on the input time accumulated when the accumulation of the stress data is completed for all pixels, correcting the accumulated stress data based on the correction gain value, and storing the corrected accumulated stress data.
