Insulation in the wall/ceiling is a big factor. If not much insulation then the wall/ceiling gets colder, which generates the real cause; you don't get as much radiant heat from the wall/ceiling. All objects above absolute zero give off radiant heat, but the amount is dependant on the objects temperature. That is the reason infrared night vision lenses work. Essentially you are giving off a lot more radiant heat to the walls/ceiling then you are getting back at lower temperatures and therefore feel cold. Actually you could turn the heat up somewhat higher and still feel cold because of the issue of low radiant heat from the walls/ceiling. If you added more insulation to the walls/ceilings and/or added working heating elements to the wall/ceilings you could turn the thermostat down and still feel warm.
