Removing the italicized parts from an APA bibliography

Question

This journal guidelines requires that

References should follow the APA style, but without any use of italic type

In the apa6 package some parts of the references are italicized. I'm wondering, is there a simple way to change that?

Thanks,

You could try to redefine locally \itdefault:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
abc {\itshape abc} \textit{abc}

\begingroup %no itshape here:
\renewcommand\itdefault{n}
abc {\itshape abc} \textit{abc}
\endgroup
\end{document}
