    Abstract: A source driving method for a liquid crystal display panel, a liquid crystal display panel, and a display device. In the source driving method, only the source driving signals input to one of two adjacent groups of sub-pixel columns are polarity inverted for each frame with respect to a previous frame, while source driving signals having the same polarity as those for the previous frame are input to the other group of sub-pixel columns. During display time for an adjacent next frame, polarity inversion is interchanged between the source driving signals input to the two adjacent groups of sub-pixel columns are interchanged.
