@@ -266,6 +266,7 @@ Indexing
 - Bug in :meth:`DataFrame.iloc` where indexing a single row on a :class:`DataFrame` with a single ExtensionDtype column gave a copy instead of a view on the underlying data (:issue:`45241`)
 - Bug in setting a NA value (``None`` or ``np.nan``) into a :class:`Series` with int-based :class:`IntervalDtype` incorrectly casting to object dtype instead of a float-based :class:`IntervalDtype` (:issue:`45568`)
 - Bug in :meth:`Series.__setitem__` with a non-integer :class:`Index` when using an integer key to set a value that cannot be set inplace where a ``ValueError`` was raised insead of casting to a common dtype (:issue:`45070`)
+- Bug in :meth:`Series.__setitem__` when setting incompatible values into a ``PeriodDtype`` or ``IntervalDtype`` :class:`Series` raising when indexing with a boolean mask but coercing when indexing with otherwise-equivalent indexers; these now consistently coerce, along with :meth:`Series.mask` and :meth:`Series.where` (:issue:`45768`)
 - Bug in :meth:`Series.loc.__setitem__` and :meth:`Series.loc.__getitem__` not raising when using multiple keys without using a :class:`MultiIndex` (:issue:`13831`)
 - Bug when setting a value too large for a :class:`Series` dtype failing to coerce to a common type (:issue:`26049`, :issue:`32878`)
 - Bug in :meth:`loc.__setitem__` treating ``range`` keys as positional instead of label-based (:issue:`45479`)
