Abstract Entrepreneurial bricolage is an important means of entrepreneurship. Some studies have explored its impact on the outcome variables, like entrepreneurial performance and so on. But the research on the individual level antecedent variables is seriously inadequate. This study aims at the entrepreneurial bricolage behavior in the spin-out entrepreneurial process, and studies the specific influence of cognitive flexibility, an individual antecedent variable. Through theoretical hypothesis and empirical test, the following conclusions are drawn: cognitive flexibility has impact on entrepreneurial bricolage, and the parent′s network relationship embeddedness has an inverted U-shaped regulatory role in the impact of cognitive flexibility on entrepreneurial bricolage. The conclusions of this study are complementary to the previous researches on individual antecedents. At the same time, through situational focus, it reveals the negative effect of excessive embeddedness in spin-out entrepreneurship, which has a certain enlightening effect on entrepreneurial practice.
