Abstract: ：This study investigates the impact of resource dependence and resource bricolage on entrepreneurial performance, highlighting the mediating roles of ambidextrous strategy and dynamic absorptive capacity, as well as the moderating role of entrepreneurial alertness.A survey of 1,008 newly established micro and small enterprises in four first-tier cities and Hunan Province in China was conducted using stratified random sampling, and structural equation modeling was applied for empirical analysis.The expected results suggest that resource dependence and bricolage significantly enhance entrepreneurial performance through ambidextrous strategy and dynamic absorptive capacity.Entrepreneurial alertness exerts a moderating effect: while high alertness enables entrepreneurs to better identify market opportunities, it may also increase the risk of biased decision-making.By clarifying the mechanisms linking resources to performance, this study provides both theoretical and practical guidance for micro and small enterprises seeking to improve entrepreneurial outcomes.The findings also carry broader implications for entrepreneurship-driven economic transformation and social development.
