Usually one can adjust paragraph indent with
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
but that fails for the apa class. Is there another way to get rid of this indents in this class?

I used the two following examples to test my statement and I noticed that the command:
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
in the preamble will do the job.
test-file apa.cls
\documentclass[english]{apa}
\usepackage{babel,blindtext}
\setlength{\parindent}{0.0pt}
\begin{document}
\blindtext
\blindtext
\end{document}
test-file apa6.cls
\documentclass[english]{apa6}
\usepackage{babel,blindtext}
\setlength{\parindent}{0.0pt}
\begin{document}
\blindtext
\blindtext
\end{document}
In the next run I noticed that \maketitle
set a new paragraph indention at the end of definition.
\documentclass[english]{apa}
\usepackage{babel,blindtext}
\setlength{\parindent}{0.0pt}
\author{Name}
\title{MWE}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\blindtext
\blindtext
\end{document}
Based on this MWE (that is your task) you have to change \parindent
after \maketitle
Proof: A minimal working example (MWE) ist the best way to illustrate a problem. q.e.d.
\begin{document} \pagestyle{plain} \maketitle \doublespacing \pagestyle{headings} \setlength{\parindent}{0pt}

\parindent
at the begin of the document. Did you tried changing it after\begin{document}
?\AtBeginDocument{\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}}
