By the concurrent use of two different resummation methods, the composite operator formalism and the Dyson-Schwinger equation, we re-examinate the behavior at finite temperature of the O(N)-symmetric $\lambda\phi^{4}$ model in a generic D-dimensional Euclidean space. In the cases D=3 and D=4, an analysis of the thermal behavior of the renormalized squared mass and coupling constant are done for all temperatures. It results that the thermal renormalized squared mass is positive and increases monotonically with the temperature. The behavior of the thermal coupling constant is quite different in odd or even dimensional space. In D=3, the thermal coupling constant decreases up to a minimum value diferent from zero and then grows up monotonically as the temperature increases. In the case D=4, it is found that the thermal renormalized coupling constant tends in the high temperature limit to a constant asymptotic value. Also for general D-dimensional Euclidean space, we are able to obtain a formula for the critical temperature of the second order phase transition. This formula agrees with previous known values at D=3 and D=4.
