d
For momenta much smaller than M,
p2−M2+iϵi​=−M2i​+O(p2/M4),DF​(x−y)=−M2i​δ(4)(x−y)+O(M−4).
(1)
Expanding the source functional to order g2, equivalently integrating out the heavy scalar by its field equation, produces
Leff​=ψˉ​(i∂−m)ψ+2M2g2​(ψˉ​ψ)2+O(M−4,g4).
(2)
Thus the four-spinor coefficient is g2/(2M2) in this normalization. Since [ψ]=3/2 and [g]=0 in four dimensions, (ψˉ​ψ)2 has dimension six and its coefficient has the required dimension −2.
