Academic articles are published in journals and are usually accessed through a database like JSTOR. To cite an academic journal article you need some key information like the volume and page numbers of the journal, the name of the journal and the database it is hosted in.

Psychological Inquiry, vol. 18, no. 4, 2007, pp. 255–258 . JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/20447394. Accessed 22 Aug. 2022.
You can manually add the citation to MyBib or you can use the database's built-in citation generator and paste this into MyBib.
Note that some Academic databases will provide you with a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) instead of a permalink or a URL. When a DOI is provided use this in preference to a URL, as URLs may change over time.
When you include a DOI, unlike with URLs, you should include the protocol http:// or https://.
