An article is a nonfiction writing that forms an independent part of a publication like a journal.

A journal is a collection of articles and is published periodically throughout the year.  Examples would be the Journal of the American Medical Association or American Journal of Public Health.  You would find articles in a journal.

Let's take a look at a citation to see where the article title and journal name appear:

Wright, C.V., Perez, S., Johnson, D.M. (2010). The mediating role of empowerment for African American women experiencing intimate partner violence. Psychological Trauma: Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy, 2(4), 266-272. 

The article is: The mediating role of empowerment for African American women experiencing intimate partner violence.

The journal it is published in is: Psychological Trauma: Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy
