Here three means the total spacetime dimension. A dimensionless action requires in mass dimensions. The kinetic term gives , so . Matching the mass dimensions of both field interaction terms gives
Thus has units of mass and is dimensionless. The quartic interaction is superrenormalizable by power counting, and is a marginal coupling by power counting.
