Dina: Sometimes there is a difference in accounting jargon for items 1)in the financial statement itself and 2) notes to the financial statements, for example. For future questions, please be more specific. We love to help! Country, industry, etc. HTH

Income (loss) of the period

This is how it would appear on an income statement of a company's financial statements. When the amounts appearing to the right are in parenthesis, this reflects a loss. The word period is used in a more general sense, inasmuch as it could be a quarter, semester or full year or fiscal year. More context would help.
Hope this helps.

profit/loss for the period

As an item on a profit and loss account it would be profit/loss, i.e. profit or loss, depending on whether it was one or the other, for the period, because it may not necessarily relate to the financial year.

Hope this helps :)
