indexed articles - same as pages?

When people say to get your articles indexed on your own site first before submitting to article directories, do they just mean - make sure that particular page on your own site is indexed or are they talking about something else.

That is what they are talking about. When it comes to duplicate content you want to be the first person to have it on your website as it is generally accept it is that site that benefits from the content and the rest will be filtered out.
